4.0 out of 5 stars Very Helpful, May 26, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: French First Names (Hardcover)

Being of french descent my husband and I wanted to honor our heratige, we found many wonderful names in this book as well as a fairly good pronunciation guide. I was a little disapointed with the organization of the book and there was not enough history provided but overall the book really helpped us out, we chose Sabine for our daughter.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not what I was expecting...., July 10, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: French First Names (Hardcover)

This is not the book I was expecting... I know the author try her best, but I found that this book have very few names for each letter, in fact I found out more french names in other book than in this one, and the title foucuses on French names.....I'm a bit dissapointed. The cover it's great but the lack on information is wat I regret...Certainly, in my opinion it is not worth it's value, in fact, I'll try to return it, it is not what I was expecting.
