Summary: OK if you need to know 22 ways to spell "Brittany"
Review: I found this book disappointing. The only way Lansky can claim 15,000 names is because he counts various, often silly, spellings as separate names. Is it really necessary to have "Nattalie" or "Pamula"?

Summary: This book was extroadinarily awesome!
Review: I have never read any of Bruce Lansky's books, but now I am sure that he is a great author. If I can find any more of his books I will surely read them. I had to find out what my name meant, and I found my name with a definition, origin, and root word. I also found what every person in my family meant. I was so surpriseed! I just couldn't believe my eyes! I would recommend this book to anyone I know.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simple and brief meanings hit the birds eye
Review: Simple. No lengthy meanings and lengthy origins. Bruce Lansky hits the birds eye. Lengthiest meaning is below 10 words. Boys and girls names are separately listed. Cover page design tempts you to go into the book. Each name has Origin, Meaning, Cross reference, famous namesake, Variations and Nicknames. A must for parents who want to name their baby.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Book!
Review: This book had so many names that we liked - we had a hard time especially since we had to pick out two names! I would highly recommend this one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's in Here! You are sure to find a name you like.
Review: This book is well organized, devided into boy and girl names, alphabetical and easy to read. The descriptions include alternate/similar names and basic meanings.

I have to say, my husband I could not (ABSOLUTELY COULD NOT) agree on a name for our children. It took us 9 months of working at it to find a name we agreed on. Thank goodness for this book. There were names in here I had not even thought of, nor would I have ever heard of them. Thank Goodness for this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Love the checklist in the back
Review: We got this book to, of course, choose a name for our son. There are tons of suggestions & meanings. I liked the small (paperback book size) size of the book...was easy to throw in my purse & take with me to kill some time at the mechanic shop when my car was getting fixed.

In the back, there are two separate pages (one for Mom & one for Dad) to make a list of their favorite boy/girl names. Then you can compare your lists without the other seeing your list first. I liked that idea.

And you can't beat the price!

Review: You'd have thought that someone would have bought Frank Zappa this book after he named his daughter Moon Unit. Obviously not. Two years later a son. Dweezil.
