Despite the French name for the app, this seems to only use English names.

US-census names actually.

As for the name of the app.. well names are hard ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There was a product I ran across in the noughties: Razorname.

Its tag line was "So good it named itself".

Doesn't seem to be around any more.

Fork it, add a bunch of French given names and call it "nombre del bebé". Keep the cycle going.

if you look for french names I've done this dashboard [1] that shows popularity of french names in France from 1900 to today. It is very slow to load, due to database loading and because heroku is free I guess. Github (french) repo is [2]
