Pauline is a popular name in France and Germany at the moment. The daughter of Princess Stephanie of Monaco is named Pauline Grace (Grace I guess is after Grace Kelly, Stephanie´s mother and Pauline´s grandmother). She has two more children, Louis and Camille. In Germany this name is pronounced Pau-lee-neh or Pau-eh-lee-neh (the -au is pronounced like the -ou in "cloudy") in France it is pronounced Po-LEEN.
My name is actually Andrew but I suit the name Pauline much better! All my friends call me Pauline and I answer to it well, although at home I get called Andrew! I'm not gay or getting bullied or anything, it's just something that's happened at school!

A friend of mine is named Pauline, I don't like the name at all. But knowing her had made me feel different about it. Still, wouldn't name my child that.
