5.0 out of 5 stars Very thorough, January 23, 2006
This review is from: 55,000 plus Baby Names: A great selection of popular and unusual names from around the world (Mass Market Paperback)
I looked through many baby name books and this one seemed to be very comprehensive. It has old and new, popular and old-fashioned names. Not only the familiar American names but other common names from around the world. If you're looking for definitions this book doesn't elaborate but gives a few words plus the origin and alternate spelling. There are also lists of the most popular names from different decades and different countries. This book will keep me busy for a while. I am very happy with my purchase.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not useful :(, December 27, 2006
This review is from: 55,000 plus Baby Names: A great selection of popular and unusual names from around the world (Mass Market Paperback)
In my opinion there were too many names in this book. Most of them were the same names but were just spelled differently. And there were a lot of girl names in the boy section and vice versa. I thought it was poorly organized and edited. I did like the front section with the name lists and categories. But overall I was really disappointed in this book. Not a good buy.

This review is from: 55,000 plus Baby Names: A great selection of popular and unusual names from around the world (Mass Market Paperback)
This is more concise than some of the books out there, which I appreciated. Lots of great ideas, still hard to choose a name!
