They're back! The gurus of baby-naming trends-see Beyond Jennifer and Jason, 1988, and Beyond Madison and Montana, 1999-return with an updated must-have edition. They include fun quotes on what celebrities think about their names and have a good, context-rich chapter on historical trends in naming as seen through the sociopolitical climate of the decades. Categories remain fun and interesting (e.g., biblical, unisex, vintage, botanical names), and, of course, the focus is on the latest trends. Buy in quantity.
