[Facts] Re: Haitian Name
in reply to a message by shesvag
I think Haitians use a lot of French names, along with the name Marie (and sometimes hyphenation), so here are some French girl's names from the BTN database:
Adelaide
Amelie
Annette
Brigitte
Camille
Celeste (I always think Marie-Celeste)
Chantal
Charlotte
Claire
Clarisse
Daniele
Dominique
Elise
Esmee
Melisande
Mirielle
Nicolette
Seraphine
Therese
Yvette
From a "You know you're Haitian when..." list:
You have either Jean or Marie placed somewhere in your name and you know someone named Roro, Fanfan, Pouchon or Marie Rose.
