I'm really liking French male names at the moment. I think they sound and look nice. Étienne, Guillaume, Guy, Loïc, Marc and Raphaël are all on my PNL and lately I've started to like Thibault. So in a search for more inspiration (and maybe a new favorite) what are your favorite French male names?

Étienne, Pascal and Emmanuel are on my PNL.

My family have friends in France and their names are Lucien and Helene, their sons are Denis, Pascal and Etienne and they have sons called Timothe and Valentin (as well as daughters Amandine and Blondine).

I also know of French people called Greg, Nico, Shafique (Muslim), Romuald and Cedric (!).

I like all of those you have listed but especially Etienne Guillame and Loic. I also like Thibault and Thierry. I have to pay attention to this board!

I have a character named Jean who has five MN's because his mother couldn't decide which Jean double FN she liked best. So he is variously Jean-Paul, Jean-Marie, Jean-Etienne, Jean-Loic, and Jean-Baptiste. Or occasionally Jean-Paul-Marie-Etienne-Loic-Baptiste.

Thierry and Didier

I completely love those. I like Tanguy (tahn-GEE (hard G)) as well, and Toussaint. I really like Guillaume as well, but it's already on your list.

Tanguy, or Tanguay, and Toussaint are last names in my area.
Oddly, Thierry, and, especially, Didier, have never made it accross the water to French-speaking Canada.
