La Trobe red, one of the colours of La Trobe University in Victoria, Australia, is known as Lo Roge (pronounced 'lu r'Udje') because the family of Charles La Trobe, who the university is named after, originated from the Midi-Pyrénées region in France where Occitan or languedoc is traditionally spoken.The La Trobe name originates from the Occitan word La Troba meaning 'discovery' or 'poetical invention', which may have been a nickname for a troubadour (Occ. trobador), a ballad singer. In relation to the University colour, the colour red in Occitan is roge, so lo roge means 'the red'.
