One of the characters created by the Belgian cartoonist Peyo (pen name of Pierre Culliford) for the Smurf comic books which were first introduced in October 1958. Peyo invented the name during a meal he was having with his friend André Franquin. Peyo, forgetting the word for "salt", asked Franquin (in French) to pass the schtroumpf. Franquin responded saying "Here's the Schtroumpf — when you are done schtroumpfing, schtroumpf it back.". The rest of that weekend they continued speaking in schtroumpf language. Later The name was changed to Smurf.
