I am also a French name lover! Here are some I’ve been crushing on (most my partner doesn’t love so I’m happy to pass them along with hopes that someone can use them!)
Annette- Annie, Nettie
Bernadette/ Bernice- Bernie, Birdie
Colette- Lettie, coco, colie
Caroline- ro, Cara, Carol
Adeline- Addie, Addy
Adele- Della, dele, addy
Evangeline- Eva, Ang, Evie
Scarlett- scar, car
Estelle/ Stella/ Estella- stell, esty, estee
Gabriella- Gabi, bri, Ella
Lucille/ Lucy- luce, Lulu
Willa- Will (I’ve seen this listed German/ French)
Genevieve- Eve, evie, Gen,
Not 100% off they are French,
but give me similar vibes:
Zoe
Eliza
Vera
Vivian
Elsa
Rose
Eleanor/ Nora (French? I forget)
Freya

I’ve also been loving a lot of french names recently as well. Here are a few of my favourites:
[name_f]Mirabelle[/name_f] - [name_f]Mira[/name_f], Bells, [name_f]Belle[/name_f]

[name_f]Delphine[/name_f] - [name_f]Delphi[/name_f], [name_f]Fifi[/name_f], [name_f]Della[/name_f]
[name_f]Estelle[/name_f] - [name_f]Estee[/name_f], [name_f]Elle[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] - [name_f]Rosa[/name_f], [name_u]Rose[/name_u], [name_f]Rosie[/name_f]
[name_f]Solene[/name_f] - [name_u]Lenny[/name_u], [name_f]Essie[/name_f], [name_f]Lena[/name_f]
[name_f]Clementine[/name_f] - [name_u]Clem[/name_u], [name_f]Minnie[/name_f], [name_f]Minty[/name_f], [name_f]Cece[/name_f]

[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] - [name_f]Vivi[/name_f], Vee, [name_f]Vienna[/name_f], [name_f]Via[/name_f]
[name_f]Odette[/name_f] - O, [name_f]Dottie[/name_f], [name_f]Etta[/name_f]
Having skimmed the others, I have not seen
[name_f]Suzette[/name_f] nn [name_f]Susie[/name_f], [name_f]Ettie[/name_f], Zetti
[name_f]Allaire[/name_f] nn [name_f]Alli[/name_f], Airy
[name_m]Just[/name_m] hopping on your “maybe” list, most are indeed used in [name_u]France[/name_u] if you adjust the spelling:
Zoé/Zoë
Élisa
Vivianne/Viviane
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]
[name_u]Rose[/name_u]
Éléanore (and its variants Éléonore/Aliénor)
[name_f]Vera[/name_f] and [name_f]Freya[/name_f] sound Italian and Nordic but would work fine too.
