Help[Opinions] Re: French double names, anyone? (and Hilary)
in reply to a message by Dot
Oh, wow. I was just thinking of doing a thread like this. I'm about to read a book by Antonia Frasier on the lovelife of Louis XIV. Glancing throught the index was a name-nerds feast of double French names.
The one that sticks out in my mind is Marianne-Victoire. I never would have put those two together, but they work in a Versailles kind of way.
I wish I had my book with me to list more, but that will have to do for now.
From your list j'adore Marie-Leonide (nn Mimi?)(Marie-Leontine would work well too.)
Au revoir

Marianne-Victoire is lovely! I wouldn't have thought of them together, but it works very well.
Marie-Leontine is lovely, now I'm torn between that and Marie-Léonide. I'd been thinking perhaps Manon for a nickname, but I love Mimi! It's adorable and perfect. Merci bien!
