 Rating:  - not that greati'm a dissenting voice here i'm afraid. i thought it was pretty limited on names, wrote little about them and was generally a lightweight effort. wish i hadn't bothered. Rating:  - Name that baby!Choosing a good name is so hard, but then you have a lot of books to help and then finding the right book becomes bothersome and... Well, you get it.

Just don't be put off if some of them say "See 'X'"; it doesn't mean they've been lumped in with another name, but that they will be discussed with them. This gives the book an almost conversational feel, as if you were listening to someone really well ... Read More: |
