@Carys1 has done A Welsh Name A Day thread so I thought I’d start a [name_m]French[/name_m] Name A Day.
I think [name_m]French[/name_m] names are so beautiful and elegant, and I’d love to come across some more! The meanings are also often beautiful 
Today I’m loving [name_f]Alienor[/name_f]. Its meaning is unknown, but it’s very similar to [name_f]Eleonore[/name_f] and [name_f]Alyenor[/name_f]. It dates back to the Arthurian romances, but still in use today.
[name_m]Anatole[/name_m]
[name_f]May[/name_f] I suggest [name_f]Antoinette[/name_f]? [name_m]Classic[/name_m] as it is, put a “Marie” before it and suddenly it’s a great name with a not-so-great namesake. 
[name_f]Angeline[/name_f]
[name_m]Lucien[/name_m] - one of my favorites for a boy, and returned to the US Top 1,000 last year
[name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] - my favorite [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] variation
[name_f]Aurélie[/name_f] 
[name_m]Florent[/name_m]
Mahée 
[name_f]Manon[/name_f] 
Jean-Pierre. 
[name_m]Loan[/name_m] 
[name_f]Camélia[/name_f]
[name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] 
thinking about my special anouk today. she used to be at the top of my list and fell down, but i think she is coming back to me 
[name_f]Margarite[/name_f]
(pronounced differently than Marguerite)
[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] 🩷
[name_f]Yvette[/name_f] 
[name_f]Alix[/name_f].
[name_m]Amedee[/name_m]
