"China will choose the names (of the cubs). Brigitte Macron will give us the honor of being the godmother," Delphine Delord, the zoo's communication director wrote on her tweeter account.
The giant female panda Huan Huan, which is on loan to France from China, will give birth to the twins on either Aug 4 or 5.
