I found these photos of a French girl named Clémentine on Flickr yesterday and absolutely adore them. I know nothing about her except that she has a lovely name and judging by these photos, I think think it suits her quite well. Don’t you just love her slouchy cap, tights and scarf? Adding Clémentine to my future baby names list…swoon.

Brandi says
Definitely add this name to the list, somewhere toward the top. It’s so lovely. And this girl has the fresh look and delicate features to fit it so well.

Brandi — Glad you’re equally smitten. I know I can trust your impeccable taste! XO
Amanda says
I have ALWAYS loved that name! If I had another girl she would be Clementine! xo
the NEO-traditionalist says
Amanda — Have another girl and then I’ll have one (eventually…) and they can be pen pals. Or better yet, if we’re nearby, play dates! XOXO

I absolutely love french names! In high school, madame would allow us to choose un prénom francais at the beginning of the academic year that was to be ours until class ended in may. French names are so beautiful, I would go nuts trying to pick out the best one. Let’s see.. I was Fifi, Sabrine.. had I come across the name Clémentine, I would have snatched that up in a second! What a sweet name for a little baby girl :)
my favorite and my best says

Amanda says
Oh my God, that would be perfect! Our little Clementines to be play dates – little southern belles! I love it! xo
