Help[Opinions] Re: Francophile names
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
I second what New_Chloë said. In addition, daily names that seem quite frilly, such as Marguerite, Vivienne, Isabeau, Garance, Roseline, Sylvain, Casimir, Aurèle, Francisque, Lambert, et cetera...
Also, since the late 90s, the French like borrowing names from other languages, such as Arabic, Italian and even English, and they use the borrowings or else they alter them and use those variants. For instance... Alyah, Maddy, Imany, Sienna, Rosalia, Malone, Elyo, Swann, Leeroy or Nahyl, to list a few. Most of them can be found at the bottom of the chart. It's quite interesting and unpredictable, since this kind of names cycles fast.
