Therese
“Thérèse is the French feminine form of Teresa, of uncertain but likely Greek origin — possibly from theresia meaning "harvester" or from the island of Thera (Santorini). Saint Thérèse of Lisieux (1873–1897), the "Little Flower", whose autobiography The Story of a Soul became one of the most widely read spiritual texts of the 20th century, made the name deeply beloved in France. Thérèse Raquin gave it a darker literary dimension.”
Emilie
“Emilie is a French and German feminine name, the feminine form of Émile, itself derived from the Roman family name Aemilius, of uncertain origin — possibly from the Latin aemulus meaning "rival" or "striving to equal." The name is used in French-speaking countries, Germany, Scandinavia, and Czech Republic, carrying a refined, slightly literary quality.”
Adam
“Adam is a Hebrew masculine name meaning "man" or "earth" — from the Hebrew adamah meaning "ground, earth", relating to the creation of the first man from clay. As the name of the first human being in Genesis, it is the ultimate founding name of the Judeo-Christian tradition and has been used in French, Spanish, and Italian since the early Christian era. It remains widely used in Francophone contexts.”
Charles
“Charles is a French masculine given name from the Old French Charlot, derived from the Germanic Karl meaning "free man". It entered the French-speaking world through Charlemagne (Carolus Magnus, "Charles the Great"), the Frankish king who forged medieval Europe. Through countless French kings and emperors named Charles, it became one of the most prestigious masculine names in the French tradition.”
Marc
“Marc is the French and Catalan form of Marcus, from the ancient Roman praenomen derived from Mars, the god of war. It is also linked to the Latin mas/maris meaning "male, virile". In France and Catalonia, Marc is a classic masculine name with both Roman gravitas and Mediterranean lightness. The Catalan Marc is especially prevalent in Barcelona and the surrounding region.”
Victoire
“Victoire is a French feminine given name, the French form of Victoria, from the Latin victoria meaning "victory". In Roman religion, Victoria was the goddess of victory. The name was widely used in French royal and aristocratic families — Victoire de France was a daughter of Louis XV — and carries a triumphant, confident beauty that makes it a perennial favourite in French naming.”
