Hello;
I have two explanations for the words Freedom and Liberty:
the english word is freedom. liberty is just anglicized from the french word liberté.
or
the word "freedom" I think it is about individual "liberties" like freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of the press, etc... While "liberty" is a more general term that encompasses all that.
Good luck

Hello again;
For your second question it is very simple:
when you say somebody is famous he is obviously well-known so the difference between them it is in a degree: Being famous is more than being well-known.
Good luck
