I'm doing it quite nicely with Maperitive. I first wrote a VB program that runs down an OSM file extracted by JOSM. It populates name:fr where blank according to a set of rules that only work locally. You load the OSM file back into JOSM and upload the changes. Then you just tell Maperitive to use name:fr rather than name when working from a local copy. You need to populate names for points of interest as well.
