I'm currently reading Flaubert's
Madame Bovary.
There's a maid called
Artémise, and before settling on the - rather ugly, in my opinion -
Berthe, the titular character considers many names for her daughter.
The ones that caught my attention are:
Atala
Galsuinde
YseultLéocadie
Athalie
She is advised against using
Madeleine - apparently, it's too trendy.
What do you think of these names?
