So Mahault is a form of MathildeI like Mathilde. Matilda is rather popular in Sweden. Felix and Lucas (Lukas) are very popular in Sweden. Amelie is not popular but Emelie and Amelia are."You sought a flower and found a fruit. You sought a spring and found a sea. You sought a woman and found a soul. You are disappointed."
