HelpRe: WDYTO These Old French Names
in reply to a message by namebug
I really enjoyed reading this list.
I love Zénaïde. I like the forms Zinaida and Zenaida as well.
Some of these names are quite rare like Osithe, which is also the name of a saint. Some might be misspellings like Ghysaline for Ghislaine

Zénaïde was my great grandmother, and as much as I like it too, I think it might be a tough name to live with.
Also, I guess we can see parents giving their own unique spelling to names even in 1870s, i.e., Ghysaline instead of Ghislaine.
I've noticed most of the names are also names of saints.
