I am half French and have lived in France and I always thought there was something sultry about Emmanuelle but couldn't put my finger on it. I have definitely never seen this, but I think in France everyone has heard of it. I don't even know where or when but those movies must have been famous at some point and still be kind of notorious because I am sure most people have at least heard of them at some point. I don't think the association is too strong though. Emmanuelle was a common name in France in the 70s and 80s and there are quite a few around, I think the association would fade quickly. I wouldn't let this keep me from using it if it happened to be my favorite name.
