743.0. "French boy names please" by MCIS5::MARJOLLET () Fri Nov 08 1991 12:56

    I'm looking for suggestions for boy French names. I've read all the
    notes here on french names. There is a bunch of girls to pick from
    but not many boys. The next problem is that I'm somewhat limited. Our
    last name is Marjollet (pronounced mar-jo-lay (soft j, long o) and
    my husabnd's name is Jean_Philippe. His Father is Georges and his
    three brothers names are Jean-Pierre, Jean-Paul, and Jean-Pascal.
    It just seems as if all the names I've heard have been used already
    in his immediate family.
    
    Any suggestions?

743.8More namesSWAM1::THOMPSOND_SHWed Jan 08 1992 19:1110
    Hi,
    
    My husband is French and his name is Vincent (pronounced Va sahn in
    French). It's nice because it's very easy to pronounce in English as
    well.
    
    A name I really like is Romain. I'm sure there are various origins; but
    the French tell me it's thought of as a "Bretagne" name.
    
    Let us know which one you pick!
