August 21, 2019SUM: A list of names and meanings, broken into masculine and feminine, including country/culture of origin.
REV: Excellent book for flipping through for names. Internet databases are more useful when searching for names that mean certain things, but this dictionary is great when I'm having trouble naming a character and have to just see lots and lots of names before I can decide on one. Gabriel, my cat, was named using this book.
