I don't think a four year old French kid would call her that, though an American one might. But she might use slang. Nunuche translates as silly. Or perhaps she's dingue (crazy, daft, nuts) or branque (irresponsible). She might also be un neuneu, a noun meaning a dork or a socially inept person. Or perhaps she's just un hérisson (a hedgehog) after all. Poor Bruno. Stupide is definitely too strong here.

Saying "stupid" when you mean "silly" is one of the reasons the French are considered to be rude. Tsk tsk. Wait, I just got it.

She has no more power over you than she has over anything else in her life. I was going to say that the worst thing the kid could do was call Bruno "silly" but I checked and French for "silly" is "stupide," and no one's going to shrug off being called "stupide" by anyone.

Poor Bruno. I ran the girl’s comment through a translator and it appears she is asking if the woman is a hedgehog? Poor Bruno.
