I've been collecting some French Colonial coins, and it seems there are two French engravers:

Lucien Georges Bazor became chief engraver at the Paris mint, and even merits a wikipedia page:

Then later on you see other coins engraved by Gabriel Bernard Lucien Bazor, for example:

Seems logical that this is Lucien Georges Bazor's son, but I haven't been able to confirm that via the internet. Does anyone know the answer to this bit of esoteric trivia?

Looks like I found the answer to my own question on a German numi website ... both signatures / names apparently belong to the same man:
