Vincent (Patrick Bruel), a successful forty-something, is about to become a father for the first time.

But when his hosts ask Vincent what name he has chosen for his future offspring, his response plunges the family into chaos.

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: This is frivolous verbal jousting elevated to a blood sport by people who are much more resilient than they let on.
Fresh: An unborn's unlikely moniker is the simple but effective motor of What's in a Name?
Fresh: Frequently delightful, full of ribald humor and compelling, intelligent debate.
Rotten: What starts as an entertaining expose of Parisian society eventually becomes exhausting.

Hilarious!
Great french Comedy. Dialogues are amazing....
Funny in parts
More like a play than a movie but still worth watching.
good
not the most amazing film of all times, and it was a bit hard to follow with the subtitles; but it was pretty good; we had a good laugh!
