About the book

"From the traditional to the rare and unconventional, the Oxford Dictionary of First Names covers over 6,000 names. Each entry tells you the age, origin, and meaning of the name, as well as its historical significance, and how it has fared in terms of popularity. Essential reference for linguists, family historians, prospective parents, and anyone with an interest in names."--BOOK JACKET.
