Hello all! Not even pregnant yet as you may have seen from the JS forums but we have been thinking about names already and have been really drawn to french boys names but could they also end up sounding pretentious?

Ideas/Opinons/Favs please MN!

Sebastian
Xavier
Louis
Francois

Thanks all x

Oh thanks all!

That why im a little worried about it as no French connect desides a love of the place, tastes, languageand people I have known. We didnt pick them on purpose: has anyone else just seamed to find a link like that?

Sebastian is lovely and not too French if you don't have any French connection?
If you do I love Claude!
All names sound better in French though!
