HelpArtémise and Léocadie: names from Madame Bovary
I'm currently reading Flaubert's Madame Bovary.
There's a maid called Artémise, and before settling on the - rather ugly, in my opinion - Berthe, the titular character considers many names for her daughter.
The ones that caught my attention are:
Atala
Galsuinde
Yseult
Léocadie
Athalie
She is advised against using Madeleine - apparently, it's too trendy.
What do you think of these names?
