What are your favorite French names (boy and girl)? I want to honor my French heritage, but I find it hard to find names that flow well with my husband’s English last name (Miles). Thanks!

Vienne is my favorite French girls name. After the River Vienne. It also doesn’t sound bad with your last name. Vienne Miles.

So far I like Antoine and Emile for a boy (Yves is pronounced the same as Eve, so I’m afraid he’d get picked on...), and I like Amélie, Aurélie, Camille and Marianne for a girl.

Thank you ladies!
