    There are a few other French name in note #62.  I personally like
    Gabrielle (?sp) or Gabriella - but it might be too much for a little
    kid and who wants to be nick-named Gabby.  Rella is another possible 
    nick name.
    
    

    As a french, I think that names you gave are not really 
    "unique french names".
    Let's give a choice :
    - Nathalie
    - Marie
    - Odile
    - Emmanuelle
    - Mathilde
    - Sophie
    - Catherine
    - Laurence
    - Claire....
    If you want I can give you a whole list of all "unique french names".
    thanks. Bye
    Marie

    More French names...
    
    - Sylvie

    - Jean Luc
    - Jean Claude
    - Georges
    - Guillaume (William)

    If you have a boy you could always name him Napoleon :-).

    Speaking of Napoleon, has anyone mentioned Desiree for a girl?
    
    (I actually know of a Desiree.  I think it's kind of pretty and
    different.)  But, I wouldn't name a human boy Napoleon, even though
    I like it.  It's a bit much for the United States to handle.  I
    have named a cat Napoleon though :-).

    	Thank you for the names so far. I think this was a good idea
    using this confrence to get some names. Some times you just get
    hung up in the same old rut and can't think of anything different.
    
    	Now all I have to do is to find out what she would like as a
    name, after all this is a two person discision. 
    
    Thank you
