Twin girl names needed; French

As we live in France we need 2 girls names that work with the French pronunciation primarily.
So far; Florence (very easy for French) - we all agree on this and think it's a definite for twin 1.
Florence and Freya?
Florence and Fifi?
Everything else has been rejected by one of the family (we have 3 boys) and we probably have just a few days left to decide. In France you have to register the birth very quickly afterwards!

I used to teach French children and in my classes, some of the girls were:

  • Clementine (MASSIVELY used in SW France for little girls)
  • Flore (but too similar to Florence)
  • Emma
  • Mary/Marie
  • Laetitia
  • Lara
  • Fanny (yes, really)


I think Clementine would go well with Florence.

I already have a Florence and a Matilda (although no French connections!) My imaginary future twin girls will be called Audrey and Amelie
