Ce samedi, Sully avait un petit air british lors du mariage civil de Pélagie de Mac Mahon et de SAR (son altesse royale) Amaury Prince de Bourbon Prince de Parme, arrivés en mairie avec leurs proches parents à bord d’un vieux bus à impériale rouge. Cornemuse et kilt étaient au rendez-vous de cette journée, références aux origines écossaises de la future mariée par sa maman, Amélie de Mac Mahon, duchesse de Magenta.

Wouldn't  Pélagie at least be a countess, being the daughter of a French duc?

No, only those that were created in the Holy Roman Empire, where some French noble families had such creations. The sons and younger branches are a different matter.

The MacMahon family^[1] originated in Ireland and established itself in France, where it gained prominence.^[2] John MacMahon, an Irish doctor born in Limerick, became naturalised in France in 1749 and married Charlotte Le Belin, Dame d'Éguilly, on 13 April 1750. That same year, King Louis XV of France created him Marquis d'Éguilly.^[3] His son, the second Marquis, served in the American War of Independence, including on the frigate Aigle which the British captured on 15 September 1782.^[4]

A grandson of the first Marquis, Patrice de MacMahon, served with distinction as a general in the Crimean War of 1853–56 and later in the Austro-Sardinian War of 1859, winning the Battle of Magenta on 4 June 1859. The following day Emperor Napoleon III created him Duc de Magenta. Later he became President of the French Republic, serving from 1873 to 1879.

Looking through the Gotha there are plenty of French ducal families where the comital is given to males, sons, brothers and uncles of the peer, titres de courtoisie. I can think of no Holy Roman French duc. There are from recollection some later French titles where the letters patent state only males are to bear the comital rank.
