THE BEST NAME BOOK EVER

CREATIVE , CREATIVE CREATIVE I LOVE THIS BOOK AND GIVE IT TO ALL MY FRIENDS. I AM A BIG FAN OF MISTER LANSKY. ILOVE THIS BOOK AND ALL THE CRAZY SPELLING AND MEANINGS...

ultimate name book

I was much more than happy with the book. It most definetly delivers all that it promises. There are so many name variations and spellings that if your looking for something unique for your babys name you'll definetly find it in here! There are also help sheets to where you can each (the mom and dad) pick out your top 20 names...than narrow it down to help you in your choice...i would definetly recommend this book to others if they are looking for a baby book.

The book delivers what it promises

This book is jam-packed with more names than I thought possible, but then again, the title promises the book contains over 94,000 names. No false advertising here; you get what you pay for. Data from the Social Security Administration was used to create the material, so families across the country have given their children these names, as unusual as they may be (e.g., some familes evidently have named their sons "Elizabeth" and "Megan"). If you're looking for a comprehensive list of names and won't be put off by the inclusion of unusual or unusually spelled names, then this book is a good choice.
