[Opinions] "Cute" French Names
I need a "cute" French girl's name for a character in a story I'm writing. It needs to sound like it would belong to a helpless damsel in distress type. I can't come up with anything I like! Thanks in advace for any help you can give me ^__^

I think Aurélie (Aurelie) would be good.

The ones that end in an "ee" sound work well for that. Sylvie, Emilie, Virginie, etc.Array

You really need to ask a native speaker about things like "cute", because names that sound cute to me might actually be considered dated or unheard of in Frace :-) However, I like (leaving out accents, for hyperlinks):

Arielle
