It used to be that a French's child "official" name had to be taken from a government list of Catholic names. I don't know exactly when this rule was changed.

In 1966 the law was changed and names from mythology, names in regional languages (Occitan, Catalan, Basque, etc.), compound names and some nickanmes was allowed.
In 1981, a disposition of Cour de Cassation (June 10th 1981) pointed out the needlessness of the presence of the name in a name list, saint list, calendar, etc.
In 1993, the law (the current law) forbides only names against the child's dignity and interest.
