Description

From a popular writer on the LaineyGossip.com blog comes a book about first names, what they really mean, and how learning to get comfortable with an awkward name can become a search for identity. In this book readers will find fascinating name stories that showcase tastes, perceived relationships between names and success and whether there really are such things as 'stripper names'.
