I concur......
 Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
....with all of the previous reviews. This book is divided into girl and boy names which are then listed in alphabetical order. There are so many names, 5,000 according to the book itself, that reading through them all to create a shortlist is time consuming!

We purchased the book to help us decide the name of our newborn and there are so many names to choose from that it is inevitable that you will find one that you both agree on!

Mainly European and biblical names, with a smattering of hebrew, arabic and Indian. Generally gives the history behind and the meaning of the name also.

Fantastic - best name book I've seen
 Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
This book is great. It has so many names from so many different origins and even the variants of those. Within 10 minutes of picking it up I had found 2 great possible names for my new addition wheras I'd found none in the countless books I had studied so far. Well worth the £8.99 RRP.

Penguin Dictionary of First Names
 Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
The Penguin Dictionary of First Names is easily the most comprehensive compendium of names I have ever come across. It is peppered with historical background and little anecdotes making it a most enjoyable read even if you are not planning on having babies but have always been extremely curious as to the story behind the name .

Thorough, informative & inspiring
 Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
This is easily the best name book which I own (and I own several). It is arranged in alphabetical order (as one might expect from a dictionary, I suppose) but for all names rather than with the usual Girl/Boy division. The gender of the name is indicated in brackets with either m or f. Each name has a paragraph of information about its derivation, meaning and historic use. This is far more thorough than many others on the market and allows you to make a very informed choice about your son or daughter's future name. I have used this book to make many suggestions to my sister about my future niece/nephew and she is very impressed. Even if you aren't expecting a child, this is an extremely interesting book to leaf through and well worth the modest price tag.
