Re: Female Victorian French Names
in reply to a message by princessoflit
I took these names from Wikipedian articles about noble French people from 1837 to 1901 (expecially from "House of Bonaparte" and "House of Orléans"). They are traditional names and thus very conservative: they were diffuse before 1837 and are still popular in France. With them you cannot be wrong!
Male names:
Albert Alexandre Antoine Auguste Charles Emmanuel Ferdinand François Grégoire Henri Jacques Jean Jérôme Joseph Laurent Léopold Louis Lucien Paul Philippe Robert Victor
Female names:
Adélaïde Anne Charlotte Clémentine Jeanne Joséphine Louise Marie Pauline Sophie Thérèse Victoire
If you want something more old-fashioned, the selection is wider, for example:
Baudouin Bertrand Clovis Dagobert Gontran Lothaire Thierry Toussaint...
