Rating: - Disappointing
I was disappointed with this book. She includes a lot of information ... but completely leaves out the meanings of names! I'd have to have yet another baby name book on hand to complete what this author leaves out. I would recommend Bruce Lansky's Five-Star Baby Name Advisor instead, because he has all the information Wattenberg includes (minus sibling-name suggestions) plus meaning and how likely the name is to be spelled or pronounced incorrectly. Those are all good things for a parent to consider! ... Read More

My wife and I are having our first child - and have looked at several name books - had I read this one first - I would not have bought another book -
Rating: - Interesting

Rating: - WOW!
Although we STILL haven't picked a name for our baby, this book has had sooo many unique and classic names! It's organized so much differently than all the other name books, it's almost fun to read!
I would highly reccomend this book, especially if the parents are unsure of where to start with names.
Rating: - Best Baby Name Book!

If you are looking for something different that groups names by category, helps to identify what people think of when they hear the name, and shows popularity over the last century of each name, then this is definitely the book for you. It has been a huge help so far ... Read More
