    Matilda is nice too (and could be French Mathilde). There's some lovely ones on that link Jinky put up.

    I think it's so hard to name children, we are stuck with it for life.

    I like older names like Matilda, or Amelia that sort of thing.

    I was going to call my DS2 Isabelle Jane, but I didn't think it suited him!

    How about Amelie, or Veronique? Both could be shortened too....if desired.

    Or if you want to go musical: Delilah, Ruby, Pearl, Allegra, Gigi, Melody, Angel, Faith.....

    Or how about having an unusual spelling? Or picking a name like Victoria that has an English and French version?

    My Mum is called Vivienne, which is the french version (and I think looks nicer)

    Scarlet Rose is lovely - maybe Scarlet isn't particularly French, but Rose translates so you are half way there. :)
