French Girl Names- Please Help!

Girl Names
1

Hello everyone! I am 32 weeks pregnant with a baby girl, and we still don’t have a name. My husband and I love classical names, preferably French. Here are the names of our other daughters:

[name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Lucille[/name]
[name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Eden[/name]
[name]Aurelie[/name] [name]Snow[/name]
[name]Clementine[/name] [name]Wren[/name]
[name]Marie[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]

My favorites are:
[name]Colette[/name]
[name]Bijou[/name]
[name]Adelaide[/name]
[name]Sylvie[/name]
[name]Fleur[/name]

If anyone could suggest middle names for those 5, it would be great :slight_smile:

Your daughter’s names are absolutely gorgeous!! Some of the middles I’ll suggest are French; some aren’t.

[name]Colette[/name]: [name]Colette[/name] is pretty, but I think it lacks the elegance of your other daughter’s names.

[name]Colette[/name] [name]Alexandra[/name]
[name]Colette[/name] [name]Mireille[/name]
[name]Colette[/name] [name]Evangeline[/name]
[name]Colette[/name] [name]Ophelie[/name]

[name]Bijou[/name]: This isn’t a name-- it’s a word. It seems like, at best, a name for a poodle… just not very classy.

[name]Adelaide[/name]: I like [name]Adelaide[/name]. Would you be pronouncing it the French way?

[name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Claire[/name]
[name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Frances[/name]
[name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Solange[/name]

[name]Sylvie[/name]: I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Sylvie[/name]! This is my favorite; if fits perfectly with your other daughter’s names.

[name]Sylvie[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]
[name]Sylvie[/name] [name]Catherine[/name]
[name]Sylvie[/name] [name]Paloma[/name]
[name]Sylvie[/name] [name]Delphine[/name]

[name]Fleur[/name]: Pretty, but like [name]Bijou[/name], doesn’t really seem like a name…

[name]Fleur[/name] [name]Caroline[/name]
[name]Fleur[/name] [name]Seraphine[/name]

[name]Colette[/name] - I adore this, but in [name]France[/name] it is somewhat the equivalent of [name]Nicola[/name]; a very 80s name. An alternative would be [name]Cosette[/name], of [name]Les[/name] Miserables fame.
[name]Bijou[/name] - having lived in [name]France[/name], I would find it odd to meet someone named [name]Bijou[/name], but it would work just fine as a mn options, as you have already used word names ([name]Eden[/name], [name]Snow[/name], [name]Wren[/name]).
[name]Adelaide[/name] - I love this one.
[name]Sylvie[/name] - my favourite; beautiful and adorable.
[name]Fleur[/name] - as with [name]Bijou[/name], but a good mn option.

[name]Sylvie[/name] [name]Fleur[/name] or [name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Fleur[/name] would definitely be my pick.

Good luck!

Your girls have beautiful names. What about [name]Sylvie[/name] [name]Camille[/name], [name]Colette[/name] [name]Amelie[/name] (it’s a bit similar to [name]Aurelie[/name] but I think that’s okay since it’s a middle name) or [name]Fleur[/name] [name]Reinette[/name]. ([name]Reinette[/name] was Madame du Pompadour’s nickname and I always thought it was a pretty name.) I like [name]Lynette[/name] also. I think whatever you choose your daughter is going to have a great name- all your choices are beautiful. [name]Bijou[/name] is probably my least favorite though.

7

I absolutely love [name]Sylvie[/name] and [name]Adelaide[/name]. I like [name]Colette[/name] but think [name]Nicolette[/name] is that much more prettier and distinctive. [name]Nicolette[/name] [name]Bijou[/name] would be adorable.

8

[name]Adelaide[/name]! It fits perfectly with your other daughters names!

[name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] or [name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Mirabella[/name]
[name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Fleur[/name]
[name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Aurelie[/name]
[name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Amelie[/name]
[name]Adelaide[/name] [name]Claire[/name]

Yay! [name]Sylvie[/name] is one of my favorite names. It is definitely the one I would choose. Good luck!

I think [name]Sylvie[/name] fits nicely with your other children…
