In England they call it “eggy bread”. I’m guessing that’s because they don’t like the French.
This is also the same country that call French fries “chips”.

I fixed French toast for breakfast & wondered how it got its name. My wife said to ask Google & I said CB is more fun.

In French it's "pain perdu", which means "lost bread". When the bread is so old that it's lost, then you make pain perdu

Soaking it in milk and eggs extends the useful life of the bread
