Publisher's Note
Call your characters by their right names. This book will help you. Now you won't have to use baby name books or your telephone directory for ideas for character names. More than 20,000 character names are included right here, along with valuable instruction for selecting names, and how those names will affect your story.

Industry Reviews
An introductory essay gives advice on the importance of name choice in fiction. What follows is an impressive collection (a lifetime labor of love) comprising 20,000 first and last names and their meanings. Arrangement is by origin, e.g. Old English, Gaelic, Hebrew, Persian, Hindu -- 36 categories in all; the index is an alphabetical list of names, allowing access without prior knowledge of origin. Though useful to writers, lots of parents-to-be will enjoy this compendium. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
