5.0 out of 5 stars A great resource for writers as well as pet owners!, February 26, 2000

This review is from: Ancient Egyptian Names for Dogs (Paperback)
Having written for several online communities where Ancient Egypt is one of the time periods, this book has proven to be invalauable. The biggest problem for people there is finding good, authentic character names for themselves and their storylines. Ms. Durr's book, though intended as a resource for breeders and owners of Pharaoh Hounds, has been invaluable to me and other writers on the respective websites. It has given people a great place to start with very good suggestions as to what to name their characters.

The book is filled with thousands of names of Pharaohs, Queens, god-names, Egyptian symbols, sacred animals, Nomes and Districts in Ancient Egypt and different Ancient Egyptian words and phrases that are translated into the English. The lists are broken down to masculine and feminine names to help cut down on confusion.

I have recommended this book to other writers and they have commented that it is very helpful. If you are also an animal lover and have a dog or cat that you want to give a powerful and "different" name coming from Ancient Egypt, this is an excellent resource.
