Re: Anatole
in reply to a message by HailCthulhu
It is a pretty common East Slavic male name, so I do not find it too out there, at least for me because I grew up around a lot of East European immigrants. I prefer the female version of Anatolia or the French Anatolie. An old favorite which is an archaic French form for a girl is Anathalie. I don't think the male version is bad at all. It is a more refreshing alternative to Anthony and it has a nice meaning.
