Hi, thank you for the report. I am able to recreate this problem in another site, with the same problem seen in both French and German sites. I will escalate this to my 2nd tier support team for additional investigation. Until a solution is found, you can use a Types field shortcode in a simple Text element instead:

[types field="date-debut-evenement" style="text" format="j F Y"][/types]

This should display the properly localized date string.

Okay, I have an update for you. As it turns out, the dynamic data feature was developed entirely by Elementor and our developers do not have the ability to make adjustments to this part of the codebase. Therefore, it's best to report this issue to the Elementor support team. They will be able to perform the modifications required to fix the date format.

In the meantime, the shortcode workaround I provided earlier is probably the simplest solution.
