Worked For Us
Comment:
If you can't find a name in this book, than you're making up something completely obscure anyway (please don't do that). It worked for us.

Summary:
One of my faves.
Comment:
As a self-proclaimed "name geek" and collector of baby name books, I list this among my top 5 favorite baby name books. No, it does not include definitions and origins for every name, but that is what the majority of other books do. This book however, provides expert opinions. Really, knowing that a name means "noble worlf" is not near as important as knowing that it will always be associated with a horrific ruler (or perhaps a not-so-pleasant word...or whatever else you can think of). It also helps some to know where the world is in their naming style. Is the world ready for Lois to come back...probably not. But, they seem to be ready for other old-fashioned favorites.

Unique names
Comment:
My wife bought this book when she was pregnant after we disagreed so much on our first child's name. I was offended by the BIBLE title as we are Muslim but I was so shocked to discover some Muslim names, even Somali. I would recommend this if you are struggling with finding unique names.

An easy and informative reference from the name gurus...
can't go wrong with this voluminous book - the name bible for those who want to be in the know!

Summary:
Not really what you expect from the title...
Comment:
I expected each name to have the same information (for example, defintion, origin, etc.). However, not all names had the origin, not all names had a definition, and about half have the authors opinions and that's all...which I obviously don't share the same opinions of. I am only suffering through this book because it was a gift from my husband...and he agrees it sucks too!
