HelpLet's give French names to Tricia, Heather and Stan anyway.
in reply to a message by Jen
I like Felicienne (intriguing), Jacques, Oceane. I used to like Cosette, but now I find it a bit childish. I'm not sure why. Raquel does look suspiciously Spanish.
And a big, fat "Zut, alors!" to Tricia, Heather and Stan. How does one say, "party poopers" in French? Let's give them French names anyway: Patrice, Helene et Etienne (or is Stephane kosher in French?). Do you (or anyone) have better ideas for them?

"eh-ZERR" ?
Bum deal for you. What's the point of frickin foreign language classes if not to rename yourself?
(*tongue in la sheek, bien sur*)

Haha!
Oh that's classic.
I've been out of high school for a while, so I can't even tell them. I like Patrice and Helene.
As for Stan, you'd have to meet him to understand, but he's just Stan. That was the allure of staying "Stan" to him. It was funny and unconventional. So while we're all saying things with accents, we get to Stan and there's just no way to say it French. Maybe if you say all the French names together and then put Stan at the end, it'll make more sense.

Heather could be "Fleur", perhaps. "h" names are difficult in French. this is actually something people think about where I live, whether names will sound well in either English or French. One family found this out when they names their son "Hugh", which is simply a strange noise in French. Ruth isn't good either.
