. . . that's not saying much, given some of the shockers of name books that I've seen.

"sometimes accurate" doesn't equal "accurate". And the odd points of accuracy don't excuse the massive mis-information that sites like that perpetrate.

Compared to the painstaking accuracy - and acknowledgement of missing knowledge - at BtN, babynames.com is just mush.

But I'm sure you know that! :-D

      - I'm a member too - the meanings/origins are generally unreliable :) - Merrimenthe Aug 24 2004, 3:10:57 AM
        
        I am also a member there. The name database is near-useless; The meanings are mostly way off. But the FORUMS - They are friendly, more mature than most, and very active...but not free. (nt) - Kandake Aug 26 2004, 9:55:53 AM
