This book not only aids you when naming a baby but if you play games like the sims 2 on pc were you create sims and have to name them it comes in handy too.I created so many I started to run out of names so I got this book and found many more to use.If you have the sims 2 on pc this book is essential because you will eventually run out of names to call your sims.This book not only features over 10,000 names but also their meaning I highly recommend it.

I bought a few name books from Amazon, this one being by far the best. All names imaginable are in here, even names that would be considered American Ghetto names that I thought were made up have Biblical roots. Many Asian (Japan, China,etc) as well as Mid Eastern names.

Be careful, once you open this book, it's nearly impossible to put it down!

I use this book as a reference often. I have purchased it for friends having babies, but it is broader than that. If you are a dreamer, there may be hidden meaning in a name. If you are into people and like to understand them better, this may be helpful. Not only does it give the meaning of the name, but also the renewed meaning with promise.


3 out of 5 stars less than what I hoped for   January 1, 2008

This book does have a lot of names, however most of them are jewish. That doesnt help us at all. It really only has about 20 or so good names, Andrew, Matthew, Marcus, etc. and they can probably be found in any other baby name book. It does offer a scripture with each one, bt I anticipated that this would be the scripture where each name was found, well that is not the case. I am not sure how the author decided which particular scripture went with each name. It offers multiple spellings for each name, which is a neat feature. However if you scan the simple list in the book and see a name you like, you mat not be able to find it in the description section because the alternate spellings/forms are not cross-referenced with the root names. If that doesnt make sense, what I mean is that we found some names on the list in back but couldnt find them in the description section because they must have been considered alternate forms of some other name that we couldnt figure out. And for some reason they also include all of the evil names in the Bible too, I dont understand that. All in all, I would say there must be better baby name books out there.

The Name Book lists many new and old names. I was surprised to see my name as well as my daughter's name in there as our names are somewhat unique. I was very pleased with this book and you will be too.
