Franglo names

It's always fun trying to work out where a film was made based on the names appearing in its credits. Spotting the difference between French and English crews is pretty easy, but with this ever more globalised world are first names becoming more similar?



Baby Name Facts has lists of the most popular names for babies in various countries. Out of the top 200 names (100 boys & 100 girls) for Britain and France 16% show up in the lists of both countries. These are listed below. It's fun trying to pronounce them in English and in French.
