  My 8-month pregnant friend and I spent an entire vacation combing this book for a name for her little one. There were some liberties taken with root names (Elizabeth, Liz, Lizzie, Liza) and the like to increase the count, but generally a good resource - the most comprehensive we found. Plus we loved the lists at the beginning of the book, where you could see popular names by decade, names of stars, their kids, shakespearean names, etc., etc. Good buy.

• 100,000+ Baby Names by Bruce Lansky
  This book is a waste of time. The author collected all names from around the world but did not bother to check their meaning, origin, etc. Many names are associated with ridiculous non-facts or false facts. Many others do not have their origin as stated. We know that for sure about polish names - we come from Poland; but we noticed the same thing with many other names as well. Very weak book. Do not buy it!

I suppose you could name your child one of the over 97,000 hideous names in this book, but the little man or women might hate you for it when they enter our brain... more info

  We found our first son's name in this book. I like that the books gives the top 25 most popular names for every decade for the past 200 years or so, and the most popular names from countries around the world. There are also a lot of fun lists titled, "Names Inspired by People, Places and Things," which include characters from various books, TV shows, movies, & stories, sports figures, singers, nature inspired names, and names to match personalities.
  The main part of the book lists names in... more info
