Omgoodness, awesome link Ciottolo, cheers for sharing!! Found so many fresh wonderful name gems on it…however, I also stumbled upon some downright “lost-in-translation” ones that not even a [name_m]French[/name_m] pedigree can rehabiltate i.e.
Arsélia Arsélianne Arsélica Arsélie Arsélienne Arsélina
Arséline Arsélinia Arsélinie Arsélise Arsémine Arséna
Arsènette Arsénia Arsénie Arsérina etc
Lol!
