Yves or Evodius, Lisoie, Yvoire, or Evodius, was an early bishop of Rouen. He is considered to be a saint by the Roman Catholic Church with a feast day celebrated on 8 October.
There is a legend that relates a fire that would turn off when "wet with tears [of his] prayers." The only place in France dedicated and named after him is the Abbey Church of St. Yved in Braine, but the choir school of the Rouen Cathedral is known today as St. Evodius Choir School.
