French Baby Girl Names Starting With C

Names of French origin are formed in a variety of ways. Many French names are derived from Latin, which was the language of the Roman Empire and the Catholic Church. Others are derived from Germanic languages, which were spoken by the Franks and other Germanic tribes who invaded France in the early Middle Ages. Some French names are also derived from Celtic languages, which were spoken in France before the arrival of the Romans.

French names typically consist of one or multiple given names, and a surname. Usually one given name and the surname are used in a person’s daily life, with the other given names used mainly in official documents. Middle names, in the English sense, do not exist. Initials are not used to represent second or further given names
