it's a baby name book - By: newera'd, 25 Apr 2006 
My cousin was having trouble naming her baby & she asked me for my input, so I bought her this bookin an attempt to help her out. She read it & looked through the names etc., all the things you do with a baby name book. When her baby was born, she ended up naming her baby girl using a combination of her & her husband's grandmother's names instead of consulting the book.
Make of that what you will.
As for the book. It's got pages full of names...
...Ok I'll expand. It is split into a girls & boys section, with some names naturally being interchangable. A few are either a bit biblical or old-fashioned, or outlandishly 'modern' sounding (I don't remember if Apple or Suri wasin there). You get the meaning and/or origins of each name, which is the most interesting part of the book. It's always nice to know what your name means & where it comes from, then realise you share little or none of it's characteristics.
It says it has 20,001 namesin it, so you might just find that one diamondin the rough. And if you don't, look up your own name, you might learn something new.

I wouldn't be naming my dog most of theses namesin this book, let alone a baby, I got it for my friend, who does quite like wierd names, but they were too far out even for her.
good for a laugh if your feeling abit down though

Everything it advertises & more. Out of all my baby name books, this is one of three I carry at all times. After all, you never know when you'll need one or that elusive muse will strike.
