I would go ahead with that domain name, other people make similar named
websites. I don't actually know about the name "OpenStreetMap" but I know
the logo is trademarked by the OpenStreetMap Foundation(OSMF). This was done
mainly so that people can't use it in a negative way, I fairly sure you're
allowed to use it as you're supporting OSM and linking back to them a lot.

You could contact the foundation to check things like this. They are a
friendly bunch from the OSM community, elected by other members. I suspect
at least a couple of the board members know some French too (sorry, I
don't!).
