Customer Reviews

Share a mother's naming insights

You may not find the traditional, overused Biblical names here, but you will find the latest, up-and-coming ones - especially some you've never heard or thought of before. Each name is followed by meanings and insights, including stereotypes of the name. The book isn't comprehensive, but for those of us who'd rather not wallow through pages and pages and pages of names, these are the best Biblical choices out there...and everyone of them researched. Not only a good name book, but a fun read! What other name book can you say that about???

Another good one
