问题     Coco Chanel, a French woman, is very famous for her success in the fashion world. The life of Coco Chanel is a classic rags-to-riches story. Born in 1883, she was abandoned by her father after her mother died. She was raised by her aunts who taught her to sew and gave her the nickname Coco, which means "little pet".
    Starting out as a hat designer, Coco went against the fancy hats being worn at the time. "How can a brain function under those things," she wondered. Instead, she created simple, but beautiful designs which became popular with fashionable young women of Paris.
    Strangely enough, World War I gave her the chance to develop her idea of simple elegance from hats to clothing. Due to the shortage of material during the war, she took the opportunity to show that less can truly be more, introducing turtle-neck(叠领)sweater and pants for women.
    In 1923, Coco launched her line of perfumes. "A woman who does not wear perfume has no future! " she said, and women believed her. Since its first appearance, Chanel No. 5 has been the world’s most popular perfume, with another botde being sold every 30 seconds. And Coco herself inspired generations of women designers and businesswomen to pursue their dreams.
The world famous brand "Chanel" is named after______.

选项 A、a little animal
B、a hat company
C、the nickname of a French woman
D、the surname of a French girl
