A lot of classic and contemporary fictions use French names to add an element of romance. Characters named Juliette or Luc are often depicted as passionate and charming. The soft sounds and the cultural associations of French names contribute to this romantic allure.
In fiction, French names often add a touch of elegance and sophistication. For example, in 'Les Misérables', the name Jean Valjean is very iconic.

It also gives characters a certain charm, as French names are associated with the rich culture, art, and history of France.
