With more than 7000 entries - including many coinages and New Age names - this is a comprehensive first-name dictionary. Each entry gives the meaning of the name, and its language of origin. A unique feature is the index of names by meaning, enabling you to find all the names associated, for example, with "joy" or "tranquil" or "strong". Other unique features include an index of special names, providing those names first introduced by literary characters and stars of the stage and the screen as well as separate listings of names by language of origin, enabling you to review, for examples, all the Hebrew or Welsh names.
