The Baby Name Bible: 50,000+ Baby Names by Pamela Redmond Satran & Linda Rosenkrantz


Expecting a bundle of joy at your house? Of course you'll want to find the perfect name to fit your new arrival and The Baby Name Bible is just the book for you. This book not only lists names, but the authors will give you insight and advice on every name and tell you what's best, what's hot, and what's not. For example, in their entry for the name "Barbara", the authors opine: "Can the lively young Barbara Bush erase or replace her grandmother's white-haired image? We doubt it." On the other hand, they love the name Oliver: "Everybody likes the energetic, good-natured British-accented Oliver; it's stylish but not nearly as trendy as twin-sister Olivia, with a meaning symbolizing peace and fruitfulness." Also including thousands of creative and ethnic choices, this book will give you plenty of names you may never have even considered. Plus, it's just plain fun to read.
