Henni, who supports rival side Marseille, is a popular influencer in France and owns a kebab shop.
His Mbappe kebab is described as having “bakery bread, as round as Mbappe’s head.”
Other players who have food items named after them include ex-West Ham winger Dimitri Payet, who is honoured with a savoury pancake.
However, Henni claims Mbappe has failed to see the funny side.
And the World Cup winner’s lawyer has allegedly sent a letter to the influencer, ordering him to rename the kebab or else face further legal action.
Via Get French Football news and other French media outlets, Henni shared part of the letter online.
It reportedly read: “Mr Henni uses Kylian Mbappe’s name for commercial and promotional ends, without having obtained explicit prior consent.”
Henni responded by labelling Mbappe “embarrassing.”

He said: “I’m stunned a player of this level has the time to think about me.
“He is using his time and money to attack me. I am not hurting anyone.
“I am a humourist. Are you not embarrassed? Launching a legal complaint for absolutely nothing?”
Henni noted that Payet has not launched similar action.
He continued: “Payet is a player with values. Mbappe has completely lost it.”
PSG and France star Mbappe has not commented.
