We are keeping with our French style names and as we are having another girl, would love some suggestions on names that "go" with our DD's name which is Monique.
DH loves Camille but I'm not so sure yet.

There are some lovely names suggested so far!
Estee

Renee is French.... (with the accent of course).
How about Shante (pronounced Sharn-tay), with a french accent above the 'e'.

Birgitte
Helena or Helene
Monette
Zoe
Emmeleine (same prnounciation as Madeleine)
Juliette?
Amelie
Genevieve
Adele
Josephine
Gabrielle
My first DD is Elyse, which is fairly French-sounding. I still love that name. :)
My 2 are Genevieve and Juliette - so we are similar in that French theme
What about Nicolette?
Isabeau
Matisse (not traditional but beautiful none the less)
Mathilde
Clotilde
Amelie
Anais
Aurelie
Emilie
Sabine
Satine
Yves (I know it is traditional to be a boys name but I think its beautiful for a girl too)
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.
I'm a french name lover too ;) We have a Seth Luc Paul and a Paris Antoinette if we had had another girl it would have been Averlie Anais... I still love that name *sigh* and DH is Marc
Chantelle/Chantal?
these two could be an option...
cecile or chloe (chloe has a little accent doovalaki above the 'e' but i didnt know how to put it in :redface:)
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 :redface:
Thank you again. Will run them by DH too :D
I love so many of the names here - can't add anything nicer!
Mireille
Michelle
Jeanne
Adrienne
Clare
Marie
Josette
Elisabeth
Adeline
Simone
Elodie
Sandrine

Anais is pronounced An-Ay... to remember "It starts with An A"

I love Camille and Sabine it I normally associate the latter with the German pronunciation, Sabina.

Garbrille

My DD2 is Elise Helene which I think is a bit french sounding
My DD's full name is Cendrine Elise Ariane W***e :dance:

DD's middle name Elise is after my younger sister !!
My name is Lorelle (also known to be French)

Tinsel - I think your name choices would suit Monique's name beautifully
Ooh I left out Je'Taime
