I enjoy the names Bettina, Delfina, Geneva, Xanthe, and Samira! If Severin were Severina and Vivienne were Vivian instead, I'd also love them.

The only one I've seen is Vivienne, which I really like. I've only seen Darcy on females.

I live near a town called Geneva, if that counts for anything lol. Also, my cousin is named Maisaan! I assume this is pronounced the same as Mayssane.

---

As for my favorite names here, I LOVE Vivienne and Samira.

---

And as for unusual names I’ve encountered, I met someone today with the surname Fishbone!

Have you met anyone by any of these names, are any of these names more common where you live?

---

Paule and Sylvie are names that were common in my mother's generation in Québec. My Mom's best friend is named Sylvie and my friend's mom is named Paule.

---

Samira and Maëlle, I've seen amongst my students.

---

I met one Yaël and one Apolline when I did student exchange in France.

---

As for the others, I've never met anyone named that in real life. I remember some reality TV contestant named Bénédicte. Like, I have not met her personally, but it exists. Same for Viggo of course, the King of Gondor. ;-) But these don't count.
