Vive La France! Chic French Baby Names You’ll Fall In Love With

Share it

If you’re anything like me and adore everything French, then you might want to give your petit bébé a fabulous French sounding name. We named my first daughter Marguerite after French writer Marguerite Duras. We’ve only ever called her Maggie, but if she wants to sound French one day (like I always do) then she is free to do so.

There are many beautiful French names for both girls and boys that have become hugely popular in English speaking countries. Hardly surprising when they sound so cool and sophisticated – even if you don’t have the accent and stylish wardrobe to go with to go with it.
