wouldn't it be more logical if his name is Veld, since ル is used instead of l or lu and ド instead of d at the end of a foreign word/name?
and, if his name would be Verdot, wouldn't it be spelled as ヴェルドト?
please tell me if i'm right or if i'm talking jibberish. again.

It's probably going for the French pronunciation. Verdot rhyming with the wine Merlot (Mer-low).
