It is immortalized by the medieval French scholar Héloïse d'Argenteuil (c. 1090–1164), whose passionate letters to the philosopher Peter Abelard became one of history's great tragic love stories.”
Frederic
“Frédéric is a French masculine given name, the French form of Frederick, from the Old High German Frithuric composed of frithu meaning "peace" and ric meaning "ruler, power" — thus "peaceful ruler". The name was carried by Holy Roman Emperors and Prussian kings and entered French through Germanic-French court culture. In France, Frédéric Chopin and Frédéric Mistral gave the name literary and artistic prestige.”
Paul
“Paul is a French masculine given name from the Latin Paulus, a Roman family name meaning "small" or "humble", from the adjective paulus. Saint Paul the Apostle — born Saul of Tarsus — transformed the name's meaning from a Roman cognomen into a Christian emblem of conversion and missionary zeal. In France, Paul has been one of the most classic masculine names for centuries, borne by poets, philosophers, and saints.”
Jeannine
“Jeannine is a French feminine given name, a double diminutive of Jeanne (the feminine form of Jean/John), from the Hebrew Yochanan meaning "God is gracious". The -ine suffix is a common French feminine diminutive, and doubled with the Jeanne root it produces a characteristically French name of warm, approachable femininity. It was popular in France during the early-to-mid 20th century.”
Remy
“Rémy is a French masculine given name, derived from the Latin Remigius meaning "oarsman" or "one who rows", from remex (oarsman). Saint Remigius (Saint Rémy, c. 437–533), the Bishop of Reims who baptized Clovis I, King of the Franks, in 496, was one of the most significant figures in French religious history, converting the Frankish kingdom to Christianity. His name became deeply embedded in French Catholic tradition.”
Marthe
“Marthe is the French feminine form of Martha, from the Aramaic Marta meaning "mistress, lady of the house" — the feminine form of mar meaning "lord, master". In the New Testament, Martha of Bethany — sister of Mary and Lazarus — represents the active life of practical service, famously contrasted with her sister Mary's contemplative listening. The name has been used in France since the early Christian era and was a common 20th-century name.”
