Which lake between Switzerland and France is also called Lac Leman?

Lake Geneva, also called Lac Léman or simply Léman, lies between Switzerland and France.

It is a crescent-shaped glacial lake on the northern side of the Alps. About 60 percent of its surface belongs to Switzerland, including the cantons of Vaud, Geneva and Valais, while about 40 percent lies in France's Haute-Savoie department.

The Rhône enters the lake near its eastern end and exits at Geneva, continuing toward the Mediterranean. Major lakeside cities include Geneva, Lausanne, Montreux, Évian-les-Bains and Thonon-les-Bains. The lake is divided geographically into the Haut Lac, Grand Lac and Petit Lac.

The names can cause confusion because English generally uses “Lake Geneva,” while French-speaking Switzerland and France commonly use “Léman” or “lac Léman.” The name Lake Geneva does not refer to Geneva's smaller namesake lake in Wisconsin; the European lake is the much larger Alpine body of water.
