I, too, am surprised at that description for Marielle. Danielle and Vivienne are both seen as "old-fashioned" in France (to my knowledge), but Vivienne is gaining popularity in Anglophone countries and Danielle was super popular in my generation in the U.S. (90s baby). We seem to like older French names, whereas many current popular French names (Enzo, Louis, Jules, Raphaël; Manon, Inès, Louise, Louna) are barely on our radar.

Of this list I really like Aveline (first heard it in Dragon Age and thought it was beautiful), Coralie, Bastian, Elize, Luc, Solène (I also like Solenne), Mathis, and Melina.

Whenever I hear Lilou, though, all I can think of is, "MULTIPASSSSSSSS!"
