21st Century Babies' Names pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
This work presents 21st Century names for 21st Century babies! While other baby-naming books trip over themselves to bombard parents-to-be with more and more names and secondary versions thereof, the truth is that more names only make the task of choosing one much harder. Parents want simplicity. They want to know that names are current and modern; the names of tomorrow - the world their child will inhabit - either to add to their own shortlist, or sometimes to avoid like the plague! This is the only book any parent will need. Much more than a collection of potential names, what sets this apart is the tireless original research Jacqueline Harrod has put in, working from such sources as the British Library in London, detailing full names and all their derivations, origins and meanings, and any links with famous literary, historical or legendary personalities. Uniquely, her work brings to light all the latest and most popular entries held on the registers of the Family Records Centre - the new surprises we read about in the press, along with established favourites enjoying a resurgence. Trends influenced by film stars and other famous personalities are easy to spot and will be a comfort to parents considering taking the plunge with the likes of 'Sienna', 'Keira' or, for the boys, 'Leo'.
