babynames | (no subject)

"Creative names instantly conver an artistic, exotic image on your child. They also mark you as a parent who prizes originality, who wants to instill a love of the inventive and poetic in your little one. These days, the source of Creative Names has expanded to include everything from surnames to place names to foreign names to names that are literally coined by the parents. But the names here are among those that have both a historical basis and an instantly recognizable creative image."
