I think it primarily comes from American cartoon culture. Little mermaid had it in 1989 but I know ive seen it in others. Probably even Looney tunes

It’s part of the “Maurice Chevalier funny French accent.” Usually with a sexual innuendo. He doesn’t laugh honhonhon in this clip, but you get the rest of it:
