Review by M. Wilson for The Baby Name Wizard: A Magical Method for Finding the Perfect Name for Your Baby
Rating:
This book is a jewel of a find. It’s not exhaustive lists of names that make you cross-eyed after 5 minutes. I hated going through other baby name books. This one gives a graph of the name’s evolving popularity over time, classifies the name in groupings, gives suggestions of brother and sister names for baby etc. It has much more features that you’ll have to read. My husband and I named our second child from the suggestions for, say example, Mia. There were names that sound like they belong to the same family like Zoe, Lilly, Ava etc. And if you like lists, there’s that too!

Okay, so there are a MILLION baby name books out there. I went with this one because I thought it might give cool first/middle name combos or something. But really, it just gave a somewhat limited list of names along with their current popularity status and historical usage via graph. Then the book shows this list recycled by name-type categories (like “Timeless”, or “Guys and Dolls”, or “Greek”). So the variety i was hoping for wasn’t really there. That was kind of dissapointing. On the up side, this book showed me that a name is not unique just because it comes into my mind during an “ah-HA” moment-a lot of names are being used to death due to this kind of thinking. Just look at Madison or Chase! So I did obtain a guideline of what not to name my baby unless I want him/her to be one of 6 kids with the same name in his/her kindergarten class. I found that to be useful information. If you are looking to make sure you don’t choose something over-used, OR if you are trying to pick something overused so your kid can blame their credit on the other 6.19 million Brittany’s, this really will help you make a great pick. But if you are looking for varied name ideas, you might want to go for one of those 75,000+ BABY NAMES books out there. Just my two cents.

I just purchased this book about a week ago for my sister who is going to have a new baby anyday now and she just loved it. Ive bought her baby name books in the past but this one is the best she says. It contains everything you can imagine and has history of the name and what the name means. Its unique among all other baby name books. Its the perfect gift for the expecting new mother. Highly Recomended. Enjoy.

This book is wonderful. It is entertaining, insightful, and a lot of fun to read. Anyone who picks it up at my house is instantly hooked. It really is hard to put down. I have three children and have been through numerous baby name books and this is by far the best and only one you need.

I bought this book this weekend to search for names for our second child. I find the book very easy to read and navigate. I really like the charts and it is very interesting to look up the “brother-sister” naming part. Even though I didn’t always like what it suggested, the names I did like I could then go back and look up other brother/sister names, so you are continually getting ideas. This is a great book, but my one complaint would be, that it offers so many brother/sister combinations it would have been great to have a section on pairing middle names. Just a thought, but other than that, if you are looking for more than just list after list of names, this is a great book.
