Antoine as a feminine name represents an unusual gender application of what is traditionally a French masculine name. Antoine is the French form of Anthony, derived from the Roman family name Antonius of uncertain Etruscan origins. While Antoine is firmly established as a male name in French-speaking regions, its occasional use for girls may stem from its melodic quality or as a feminine variation of Antonia. The name has a sophisticated European flair with its French pronunciation (ahn-TWAHN). As a feminine name, Antoine is quite uncommon, making it a distinctive choice. The crossover usage creates an interesting gender-neutral option, though parents should be aware that it may cause some confusion as it remains predominantly masculine in traditional usage patterns.
