Aurelie
“Aurélie is a French feminine given name derived from the Latin Aurelia — the feminine form of Aurelius, from aureus meaning "golden, of gold". The ancient Roman gens Aurelia was one of Rome's great families, and the name passed into French through Catholic hagiography via Saint Aurèle. In France, Aurélie gained renewed popularity in the late 20th century as a graceful, classically-rooted name with a luminous sound.”
Veronique
“Véronique is the French form of Veronica, from the Latin Veronica — traditionally derived from the Latin vera (true) and the Greek eikon (image), meaning "true image", referring to the cloth on which Jesus's face was miraculously imprinted when Saint Veronica wiped it on the road to Calvary. The name was widely used in France through its saint's legend and carries strong Passion narrative associations in Catholic culture.”
Denise
“Denise is a French feminine given name, the feminine form of Denis — derived from the Greek Dionysios, meaning "devoted to Dionysus", the Greek god of wine and festivity. Saint Denis (Saint Dionysius), the first Bishop of Paris and patron saint of France, martyred on Montmartre in the 3rd century, made Denis one of the most venerated names in France. Denise became a popular feminine form in the 20th century.”
Virginie
“Virginie is the French feminine form of Virginia, derived from the Roman family name Virginius, possibly from the Latin virgo meaning "virgin" or "maiden". The name gained literary fame through Bernardin de Saint-Pierre's 1788 novel Paul et Virginie, one of the most beloved French novels of the 18th century, whose heroine became an archetype of natural innocence and tragic purity.”
Christelle
“Christelle is a French feminine given name, a diminutive form of Christine, itself derived from the Latin Christianus meaning "a Christian" or "follower of Christ", from the Greek Christos meaning "anointed one". The -elle suffix is a characteristically French diminutive, giving the name a lighter, more modern feel than Christine. It became popular in France during the second half of the 20th century.”
