Thoughtful

Very interesting app, gives you detailed of the etymology of names and constantly refreshes. Easy to use and becomes a great topic for discussion.

CCandyrock73

such a good idea!

Fun and informative

I love the data showing a name’s popularity over the years. I don’t want my kid being one of three Kyles in his class (true story from second grade).

Way more fun than a baby name book!

What a fun and clever way to explore baby names! It feels like scrolling a giant list and going down a charming little rabbit hole. It definitely makes the baby naming process more playful than overwhelming.
