French Sibset
I felt I had to share.
These are actually ancestors of one of my cousins.
Children of Joseph Lucien & Marie Anne Thérèse Archambeault
Joseph Lucien Edouard
Joseph (died shortly after birth)
Marie Anne Thérèse
Marie Laurentine Philomène Melanise
Joseph Napoléon Armand Gaston Tancrede
Joseph Pierre Telesphore Hippolyte
Marie Sophronie Veronique Floride
Marie Eulalie Eveline Georgianne (twin)
Marie Euphemie Lucrèce Gabrielle (twin)
Joseph Francois
Marie Celanire
Zoé
I was able to find the family on a census record. Their names differed from the names above, given to them at baptism.
Lucien, 45
Marie, 39
Joseph, 21
Thérèse, 17
Laure, 16
Gaston, 14
Pierre, 13
Sophie, 11
Lea, 10
Phebe, 10
Francois, 5
Celine, 4
Zoe had not been born yet.
:Notes: Eulalie and Euphemie were born almost two days apart. They were also baptized on separate days. For some reason unknown to me, Zoé only received one name.
Some of these names are too cool. Among my favorites are Lucien and Melanise but I think they all are unique and classic French-Canadian.
WDYT? Would you use any of these combos name for name? Which names are you most drawn to? How would you incorporate them into a combo of your own?

Utterly gorgeous.
They are so over-the-top sophisticated that you have to love the exuberance of it all. For having so many children they certainly had enough time to contemplate names! And they made the most of it.
Marie Laurentine Philomene is terrific. Melanise disquiets me for some reason, though.

The last name is interesting; it looks a lot like a French form of Archibald or Archembald.
I like everything except for Zoe and Laure.
