HelpRe: Marieve: your opinions on these French girl names
in reply to a message by thetxbelle
Marieve is neat, I've never seen it before. Would it maybe be spelled Mariève?
Bérgenère is so great. Love the meaning.
Ombeline is new to me, and awesome. I found the meaning 'brilliant spirit' on a French website.
I dislike Aubeline, but like Aube. Also the similar Aude.
Nadège is so beautiful. Like Nadia + neige ('snow' in French).
Mazarine is so cool, it's very Mitterand for me still.
I don't like Josiane too much. Joséphine is fabulous, though.
My instinct is soft G (zh) in Argider. My mom's surname is Basque and contains a G followed by a U to make it hard (the Spanish way). Argider is handsome, it reminds me of silver because of the root 'argent.' A bit unwearable in an English speaking place though.

Youre right about Mariève, I forgot the accent mark! As for Ombeline, I have seen the reference youre talking about and LOVED it but most French & US sites have a gem related definition so Im going with that. I know what you mean by Mazarine, thats why I'm not sure about Ségolène, I love the name but it has political ties and I like to avoid that sort of thing.
