This handy booklet provides the translation of the most commonly found American nicknames for both males and females into their full given name equivalents. Often, a nickname can stand for more than one first name and many variants are covered.Included in the appendicies are English to Dutch/Frisian nickname translations, names commonly found truncated or superscripted, and names which can be either male or female. An excellent reference from one of the giants in genealogy.
