This charmingly designed and illustrated naming guide contains an A-to-Z listing of more than 25,000 names, listed separately by boys' and girls' names, and features two user-friendly ribbon place markers.

It can be daunting - after all, the choice of a name will help define that baby, who will eventually be an adult - but with this book in hand, it will be supremely fun and rewarding.
