Names to go with a French surname

53 replies

We have the surname Bisson (pronounced Bee-son). What names for boy or girl would you suggest to go with this? We live in the Channel Islands so French names are quite popular but not sure if we should go English? Difficult beacuse I am a teacher and many names are 'off limits' as they bring to mind past students. Please help!

It's very tenuous Snowball, you can do a reverse and type in Pocahontas, see what you get and then click for more names.

The results are quite random Grin

Giselle. Very out-of-fashion French name but goes down a storm in the UK. I feel it's due a comeback. Avoid the spelling with an accent (Gisèle), as Brits struggle to cope.

For a boy:

Alexander
Nicholas
Marc
Thomas

..would go well with Bisson in both languages.
