What's in a name? Rather more than you might at first suspect, for
names are steeped in history and myth and have much to tell us
about our past, our beliefs - even our personality traits. Now
fully updated for its second edition, with 150 new entries, The
Penguin Dictionary of First Names takes a close look at over 5,000
examples, ranging from the familiar to the comparatively obscure,
drawn from all parts of the English-speaking world. Detailed and
informative, it is essential reading for expectant parents and for
anyone who is intrigued by the story attached to each name.
