What is a good name for a Jewish, but French child?

My teacher is having a baby, and I was wondering what Jewish names (she's Jewish) are also of French origin, or vice versa. Thanks!

What is a good name for a Jewish, but French child?
There are no Jewish names that are of French origin. There are Hebrew names that the French have made their own version of though. Jaques or Jack is the only one I can think of which comes from Jacob which is Jewish. (boy)





Elise is the French form of Elizabeth which is Hebrew. (girl)





Hope that helps.
Reply:I dunno. I'm also Jewish but is the baby a girl or boy? If it's a boy a good name that I can think of is Johonis. I'm not sure how it's spelled but it's pronounced yo-hon-iss. Good luck!
Reply:Names that are both used for French and Hebrew babies:


Abel (Male)


Anne (Female)


Ariele/Arielle (Female)


Aron (Male)


Bartlett (Male)


Benjamin (Male)


Daniel (Male)


David (Male)


Elisha/Elishia (Female)


Eliza (Female)





and many many more. Just because she's Jewish and French doesn't mean she's going to name it a name only in those origins.

to name a few you could embellish
Reply:Bagel Baguette.
Reply:"Lisette" means "devoted to God" and is of both French and Hebrew origins.
Reply:huh? so, are you the dad?
Reply:Hot Velma, WHERE are you getting your information from????? First of all, Madeline, though it is French, is not from Mary Madgalen. Second, Mary Magdalen is from the Christian New Testament.





I also want to say that a lot of the "joke" answers were pretty funny...though I'm sorry the asker didn't get the answers she (he?) was looking for.

Reply:Maybe Madeline, bcuz it is from Mary Magdelene?
