5.0 out of 5 stars Spot on - gave us some great ideas, 27 Dec 2001

By A Customer

At last a baby book that is comprehensive enough but you don't get lost, and full of relevant names but still came up with some great ideas we hadn't thought of. Our copy is now looking very dog-eared and we have months to go!

2.0 out of 5 stars Didn't do it for us!, 24 Feb 2008

By	Mr. C. Hone (Leeds, England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book tries to be all things to all people; whether it's any good for you depends on why you're purchasing a book of baby names. If like us, you want to get ideas for a newborn then there are much better books than this one.

However, if you are genuinely interested in names and want to see them sliced and diced into 19 different categories, then this may be for you.

Name categories included Animals and birds, Occupational Names, Names from the Arthurian legends so perhaps not the best source for a girl born in Leeds in 2008!

If this review hasn't put you off, then a good bet is to buy "used" on Amazon - our copy was highly usable and (fortunately) cheap.
