I'm not a big fan of French names, but I do like Arielle for a girl :-)
(Also Esmee, but I don't really consider that French because it isn't used there. It was actually first used in Scotland, although it's of French origin of course.)

Lilou is indeed very trendy in France, although I still don't know if it is a legitimate name, and from which origin...

I haven't got a clue where it came from, I first heard of it on Le cinquième élément ... and just looking on meilleursprenoms this is what it says:
Prénom apparu en France en 1994 et dont l'essor en 1997 coïncide avec la sortie du film de Luc Besson, Le cinquième élément.
