Nieuport was the most common French fighter plane. It was produced in various models: 11, 17 and 28. SPAD was also a famous French fighter that was a very good and solid airplane. The main versions were the Model VII and XIII and a two-seat Model XI. Also, another of my favorite French-built fighter was the Hanroit HD-1. The French government did not purchase any but Belgium, Italy and USA did.

There were many French fighter aircraft, the most common were: Nieuport 11, Nieuport 17, Nieuport 24, Nieuport 28, Spad VII, and the Spad XIII. These aircraft were used by the French, the British, and the Americans. Additionally the British made & used their own aircraft as well. American pilots flew mostly the French made aircraft.

Hmm. Not sure what you are asking. A plane is usually known by the manufacturer who built it. One name was a Sopwith. But there were many different models built by Sopwith. One was named "Camel" because of the hump on its "back". One was named "Snipe", a type of bird. Others were named according to their construction: "One-and-a-Half Strutter" and "Tri-plane". Most WW1 airplanes were known that their model number such as Fokker D-VII. It didn't really have a name. Hope this helps.
