About this item

There are tens of thousands of baby names out there - and books that dutifully list them. And then there is 1,107 Baby Names That Stand the Test of Time - a curated, considered, opinionated, and richly informative guide that winnows down the world of baby names to help moms and dads make smart choices, sidestep the trendiness trap, and avoid the ranks of parents (more than 54%) who later regret the name they chose. This is the book for parents who know they are naming not only a cuddly newborn but an actual human being who will be proud to carry this name throughout his or her entire life - a name like Eloise, the French version of Louise, which means "fighter," perfect for a feisty girl; Brendan, a solid Celtic name meaning "prince"; or Beatrice, an old-fashioned beauty with roots in both Dante and Shakespeare.
