    I've got a Genevieve, and a Clare, and an Isobel (the last two are quite French but aren't spelled the French way ).

    Reading this thread made me realise I *love* the name Sabine... pity I'm having a boy LOL.

    Wow, thank you so much. The names are just lovely! I have a couple on my list already (Amelie, Emelie, Elise) and I love Juliet but Monique's middle name is Julianne which is a combination of our mothers names so don't particularly want to use Julie in the name again (my MIL name).

    Niliac - I really like Yves for a girl and Matisse was always a favourite but I don't think DH likes it.

    bjrose - The more I say Nicolette, the more I like it.

    Tinkerbell - I like the names prounounced line instead of lin.

    My DH had Anais on our top 5 list the first time but I had such a hard time saying it. Can someone suggest an easy way of remembering how because I really like it

    Thank you again. Will run them by DH too

    Juliette is lovely, too.

    I think Anais is pronounced an-a-ees (with the s sound at the end).
