Answer 7

I think Esme is a wonderful name as well as Landon James.  I always liked the name Serenity.   If your heart is set on a French name you could always look on http://babynamesworld.parentsconnect.com...  and search for names of French Origin.  Hope this Helps =]

Answer 8

I like Lily but I really can't stand the name Esme. Landon and James are both cute. What about Claire, Isabelle, Danielle?

Answer 9

Lily is pretty, but I really don't like the name Esme.

Landon its quite unusual. I like it. =)

How about Isabelle? Sophia? Or maybe Avril? Hehe.

xD.

Answer 10

how about lillyanna i think that's cute i came up with alicianna for my daughter

Answer 11

I like both girl names but prefer Lily.

Answer 12

I love Lily and Esme!  I'd steer you toward Esme, though, since it's French and uncommon.  Lily used to be in my top 3 until I discovered how popular it's getting -- it's ranked #27, and its popularity is rising.

Other French names I like (I've starred favorites):

Eloise*

Adele*

Elise*

Coralie

Amelie

Elodie

Aurelie

Brigitte

Genevieve*

Camille

Celeste

Celine

Giselle

Helene

Madeleine

Josephine*

Juliette*

Marielle

Mireille (mee-RAY)

Mirabelle

Orianne

Rosalie*

Simone

Seraphine

Vivienne

For middle names, I like the idea of pairing a two-syllable middle name with a one-syllable first name, or vice versa.  I like Elise Juliette, for example, or Genevieve Adele.  Claire and Fleur sound great with any of the options above -- Eloise Claire is a favorite combo if mine.

As far as boys' names go, Landon James is nice, though it's not particularly my style.  (I like names that are very old-fashioned.)  Are you considering French options for boys as well?  I'd encourage you to be careful here, as French names tend to strike most people as feminine.  Here are few I think would work.  (You may want to consider pronouncing them the English way, though, with the stress on the first or second syllable instead of the last.)

Adrien

Sebastien

Dorian

Julien

Jules

Edmond

Jacques

Leo

Marius

Maximilien

Olivier (as a middle name only)

Philippe (middle name only?)

Rainier

Raphael (Raf is a cool nickname)

Good luck, and I hope this helps!
