Description
First names are subject to both conservatism and fashion - John and Mary have traditionally topped the popularity stakes; Hazel and Gilbert rose and fell with the passage of time; Jade and Devon have recently crept into use. Place names (Kent), historical figures (Hannibal), precious stones (Ruby), natural phenomena (Autumn), Hollywood stars (Clark) and emotions (Joy) are among the many influences revealed in the Bloomsbury Dictionary of First Names.Tags
