Summary: Very Handy Reference
Comment: I use this incredible book when creating custom "Personalized Acrostic Name Blessings" as gifts for just about every occassion, and also in ministry, through my publishing company, Chalfont House. I love that a theme verse is suggested to mesh with the meaning of the name. Or, if the meaning of the name is less than wonderful, an alternate "spiritual connotation" is suggested too. This allows me to help people feel better about their name. For example, I can change "Mary" which literally means "Bitterness" into "Blessed". I like the listing of alternate name spellings, and that the names are all alphabetical instead of by gender. This is a great resource!

Summary: I'm very happy with this name book
Comment: I like how all the names are listed alphabetically and not divided by sex. To me, it just seems to take longer to go through names when they're divided. With this book, you have one set of "A" names instead of two, etc. Another thing I like is that there isn't an overwhelming amount of alternate spelling and nickname suggestions.

The Name Book is from an interdenominational Christian perspective and includes Bible verses from various Bible translations (each abbreviated). There are also lists in the back of female and male Biblical names. Even if you're not Christian and are simply looking for a name, don't pass this resource up.

Summary: Excellent Research Resource
Comment: This book is an excellent research resource for the serious student seeking to learn the Father's symbolic language to us in regard to dreams & visions. This is not a regular run-of-the-mill book of baby names to choose from (although it provides an excellent resource for that as well). It is brief, concise & to the point with the language/cultural origin, inherent meaning, spiritual connotation & Scripture reference - & precisely because of this form, it is able to list so many names (over 10,000). It is an absolutely invaluable & wonderful research tool. Many, many, many thanks to the authors/compilers!
