Alternate given names can also present problems. Each French Canadian child usually had several given names. Only one of the names was listed in the christening record. A different given name may have been used in later records. So Blanche may also have been called Louise, and Joseph may have been Ignace. Or a boy christened as Napoléon may have gone by Paul or Léon, and a girl named Marie des Anges may have prefered Angélique. A discussion of given names is on page 118 of Marthe Faribault-Beauregard, ''La Généalogie: Retrouver ses ancêtres''. | Alternate given names can also present problems.
