4.0 out of 5 stars Nicely made book weighted toward European names
Published in Britain, this baby naming book is less common than Beyond Jennifer & Jason, Madison & Montana: What to Name Your Baby Now, and many of the names have a decidedly European flavo(u)r.

High quality paper and attractive layout. Plenty of background on the names included, of which there are, at 3000, admittedly fewer than most competitors.

1.0 out of 5 stars How about "The WORST baby name book" ?
Unless you enjoy reading a book as interesting as the dictionary this book isnt for you. I bought it because it had mentioned it had
Popular and favorite names
celebrity names
historical and royal names
names from around the world
The history and meaning of each name

Sure it has all of that but not in chapters like I assumed! If the name happens...

1.0 out of 5 stars How about "The WORST baby name book" ?, July 9, 2003
This review is from: The Best Baby Name Book: Over 3,000 names and your new baby's star sign (Paperback)
Unless you enjoy reading a book as interesting as the dictionary this book isnt for you. I bought it because it had mentioned it had
Popular and favorite names
celebrity names
historical and royal names
names from around the world
The history and meaning of each name

Sure it has all of that but not in chapters like I assumed! If the name happens to belong to a celebrity than it mentions it and so on. Also this has so many names in it that I couldnt see anyone actually naming their child- how about a precious little girl named "Welcome" or "Wapeka". Sorry if any of you have named your children that and I have offended you, I just dont think most people are looking for these names when choosing a baby book

Its simple, this book is in alphabetical order for girls and boys. If you enjoy reading until your eyes are blind by all means buy it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nicely made book weighted toward European names, April 14, 2010
This review is from: The Best Baby Name Book: Over 3,000 names and your new baby's star sign (Paperback)
Published in Britain, this baby naming book is less common than Beyond Jennifer & Jason, Madison & Montana: What to Name Your Baby Now, and many of the names have a decidedly European flavo(u)r.

High quality paper and attractive layout. Plenty of background on the names included, of which there are, at 3000, admittedly fewer than most competitors.

A good choice to complement a more inclusive baby name book. The middle section on baby's horoscope is, unsurprisingly, silly and worth skipping.

5.0 out of 5 stars I agree with the title, July 13, 2003
This review is from: The Best Baby Name Book: Over 3,000 names and your new baby's star sign (Paperback)
I liked this book a lot. The selection of names won't overwhelm you (insane spelling variations are kept to a minimum), and the summaries behind each entry are entertaining. It's one of those baby name books you actually read, as opposed to going cross-eyed, as a result of looking at list after list.

Even the graphics are cute. Gotta love that bear and bunny. ^_^
