[edit]

It's 'Buteau' not 'butard' and the marquesan name of this island is Fatu 'uku or Fatu'uku. Fatu HUKU is the improper name on french map (because speaker of latin languages don't hear aspirated h and mix it with glottal stop). It's not good to speak of Fatu Uku, adding more confusion. S.

My reference says it's Butaud not Butard or Buteau. Regarding the name of the island, perhaps a discussion is needed to determine whether the Marquesan or the French name should be used.
