what else could I like - girl names

[HazleNutt]

So DD is due this summer, and due to living abroad with foreign DH, I need a name that works at least in French and English, preferably also in other bigger European languages.
The name should be well known, so DD would not have to spell it every time - but also not in top 10. At the moment we like:

Eleanor
Alicia
Helen - in France that would be spelled Helene though. In English, would she have to explain every time that that's Helen with e at the end? Not so keen on Elena.
Elise

What's your favourite, and what else could I like?

I like Eleanor and Helen(e) best. How about: Rosa, Greta, Josephine, Sylvie, Marianne, Anna, Caroline, Johanna, Cecilia?

I really like Elise. How about something like Vivienne or Juliette where the French spelling is commonly used in the UK?
Other ideas:
Charlotte
Audrey
Adele

Lovely names! I had Eleanor and Elise on my short list but finally went for Annabelle.

We were in quite a similar position with DD. In the end we chose a name that is used in the UK and all of the Germanic / Nordic / Russian languages and manageable in the Latin languages (although not used). But from my extensive survey of names, Clara seemed to be the one that is known and used and pronounced the same way almost everywhere.
Eloise works well in French and English, and Anna is also known almost everywhere. Lucy(ie), Emily(ie) and Sophie/a are also in fairly general use throughout Europe, although are pedestrian choices.

But as I said above, in the end, despite there brings high chance of DD growing up in a Francophile country, we just chose our favourite name on the basis that it was easily pronounceable for a French speaker.

I like all of your list.

I have two different French-Elsewhere couple friends who called their daughter Constance, which I love.

Oh and I really like Estelle, but DH doesn't. Eloise and Elodie are both gorgeous, but won't go with my last name.

I like Elenanor.

What about...
Alice
Angeline
Matilde/Matilda
Maude

I like all of your names except Alicia (never sure how to pronounce it). How about Chloe?

Genevieve

Emma
Julia
Marianne
Beatrice
Charlotte

Of your names, I like Eleanor best but wonder if people would always be asking "Is it Helena or Eleanor?". Both nice names, however.

María
Silvia
Juliette
Cora

French/English girls I know-
Melody
Camille
Iris
Clementine

Also names with simple sounds like Lara, Anya, Ella, Mia

Margot?

French/English babies i know are called:

Josephine
Emilie (shortened to Millie)
Stephanie
Philipine

Thanks, some interesting ideas, keep them coming.

Does anybody know anybody called Helene? It is pronounced slightly differently than Helen, but they probably still have to spell it every time?

I was taught swimming by a Helene and by the way she pronounced it (He-Lene with more emphasis on the 'L') it was obvious it was a different spelling. There's also Honor which seems along the lines of your faves.

Anna
Josephine
Beatrice
Joanna
Teresa

Isabelle

Marguerite

Fleur

Florence

I know a Helene. Agree with the above pronunciation. I think she does have to spell it a bit but it's a lovely name.
Also consider Natalie/Nathalie?

What about Leonore, similar to Eleanor but easier to pronounce in French.

Ellen? Not very French but well known as Ellen MacArthur is v famous in France. Cannot mispronounce - and it will sound like Helen pronounced by a French person.

Some others:
Sophie
Camille
Lia
Lily
Sabrina

Celeste
Caroline
Alexandra
Ariane

Emma

I would suggest Anna, Maria, Lisa, Sophie, Isabelle/Isabella, Olivia or Juliette.

I like Alicia, but there are 2 different pronunciations of course (Al-eesha, and Al-iss-ee-a). Don't know which one they would use in France.

Eleanor is also lovely. Is it well known in France?

Elise is nice. You might have problems with Helen, as pps have said. There is Helena, spelt the same everywhere as far as I know, but with about 4 different pronunciations!

My fave out of these is Eleanor. Other suggestions...
Elsa
Renn
Bonnie
Azaezle
Fern
Pip
Katya,
Hope you like these!
