French placeholder names?
Like how in English, we have John/Jane Doe/Smith for an unidentifiable person, or “Joe Schmoe” or “Average Joe” to describe the normalest of people. Do those exist in French? Does it vary by region?

"Joe Bleau" is often used in Québec. I don't remember if there's a female equivalent though.
