in my python 2.7 environment where utf8 is used I tried this
self.chart.xValueAxis.monthName = '''Janvier Février Mars Avril Mai Juin Juillet
Aout Septembre Octobre Novembre Décembre'''.decode('utf8').split()
If you don't use unicode here then the truncation to first three characters goes wrong.
It might be better to use unicode directly eg
self.chart.xValueAxis.monthName = [u'Janvier', u'F\xe9vrier', u'Mars', u'Avril', u'Mai', u'Juin', u'Juillet', u'Aout',
u'Septembre', u'Octobre', u'Novembre', u'D\xe9cembre']
Unfortunately this is a global change so all NormalDate objects get these values. The NormalDate code is very old and
probably needs a good deal of attention.
