Hint: http://www.google.co.uk/

You will find about a million baby name sites, some offer you graphical information to show hoe popular some names are and whats in decline and so on... Its a question of searching for them.

I found the internet the best resource for names, friends lent me baby name books but they were not much use and TBH a bit of a waste buying any when you consider that you have already paid for internet access and you should use it, its a great resource.

i've been on babynames.com all week. i'm finding them pretty helpful. i've got a fine looking shortlist now, thanks to posters here, that website, friends and family and my own genius. but we've still got a few months to wait so i'm not panicking just yet.

i do own a baby name book, but it was written in the 60's and is relatively unhelpful.

I personally would also avoid Tyson, Tyler, Tyrelle, Tyrese and any other combinations or similar renditions.

I saw a good one today in the births announcements in the paper. A baby boy called O'Rafferty.  Oh dear!

There's a good mix of babies names in the birth announcements of my evening paper:
Hannah, Annalise, Ethan , Joshua, Jasmine, Amelia, Isobel Grace, Mason, Libby, Elle and unsure how to pronounce this one... Kaidyn.
