About this title

From the Publisher:

This excellent book provides inspiring information the other baby name books on the market do not, with root words, pronunciations, and combinations of the sacred and profound. It is the ultimate reference for expectant parents and others seeking to demystify the search for a new kind of name!

From the Author:

This work is the product of my fascination with global cultures, their languages, and the history and migration of names. It was incredible to study with scholars from all around the world, all of whom spoke with pride for their homelands, finding beauty and hope possible everywhere. I found the true meanings of many names and how to navigate through their sources, learning what were variations on Bible names or truly ancient ones. It felt like I was discovering gems, each metaphor exquisite when I held them in the light.
