2 out of 5 stars Just another names book   September 4, 2008
I found this book had lots of names missing and lots of un-realistic names you wouldn't ever choose! I suppose it's ok if you want something completely weird!!


1 out of 5 stars Don't do it!!!   July 12, 2008

Seriously they called it 7000 names and then went through the Bible, shakespear and then invented the rest of them. it should be renamed 7000 names that could lead to your child being seriously bullied, Why would you name your child, Gentilis!!! If you want to make your child hate you and save yourselves the price of this book go to Wikipedia and look up Bible names.


1 out of 5 stars Complete and Utter rubbish!!!   June 26, 2008

I don't know how people can say this book doesn't suggest rediculous names, 'ANAL' for a girl, who would even consider calling their child this???!!! I would hope no one! I bought it because it said classic and modern names but the classic names are the very common Laura, Sarah, Anne etc and then the modern names are ridiculous, many of them foreign and completely unthinkable unless you have an unusual surname with which an outrageous name wouldn't sound so bad. I only read to O in the girls's names before giving up hope on finding anything remotely suitable unless I chose something run of the mill which I didn't want. I was hoping to find a name that was slightly different without being too weird but this certainly isn't the book to do this, it goes from the mundane to the ridiculous. Totally not worth the money.


2 out of 5 stars Too little choice and too much classic   June 18, 2007
 2 out of 4 found this review helpful

I was fairly disappointed with this book and instantly ordered an alternative as it just wasn't useful for me. The choice of names within each letter of the alphabet was very limited and the focus tends to be on classical names rather than modern so very little choice unless you want to call your child something very unusual!


5 out of 5 stars Plenty to choose from without stretching to the ridiculous   March 1, 2005

A clear and concise resource of every baby name you could think of and their classic meanings. This book is a nice mixture of traditional and modern for those who are undecided about which direction to go in. Unlike some books which include every baby name under the sun including potential names that no parent would dream inflicting on their child this title knows where to draw the line - highly recommended!
