Synopsis

The up-to-the minute word on what's hot and what's not from "the arbiters of hip baby names."-The Wall Street Journal

As America's leading baby-name experts, Pamela Redmond Satran and Linda Rosenkrantz hear the same question again and again: "What are the cool names?" Here are the fun, fresh answers, delivered with the authors' trademark wit and authority, including:

*HOT COOL--From the top 100 of cool to why Ivy is cooler than Ivana.
*COOL COOL--Famous names: movie characters, artists, athletes, musicians, and writers, even nanny diary names
*NEW COOL--Spiritual names like Pax or Eden; color names (Indigo, Lavender); music names (Jazz, Cadence, Madrigal); foreign word names (Luna, from the Spanish for moon; or Vero, Italian for truth).
*TOO COOL--Why not to name a child Kool or Tiger.

plus superlatives you won't find anywhere else: Coolest Cowboy Name, Coolest Southern Belle Name, Coolest Palindrome Name, Coolest Spice Name, Coolest Hero Name...

Cool Names is the definitive guide to the hottest names.
