Etchings on the Attic Wall

This is probably the best baby name web site I’ve seen. You can use the advanced name finder to enter lots of criteria to find the perfect name. They also offer the “Namipedia” with a full page of information on each name. The “NameVoyager” is really cool! It shows a trending graph of all names back to the 1880’s. As you type letters, the graph starts narrowing down the results. You can see information on when names were most popular and how it changed over time. They also have the “NameMapper” which shows a map of the United States and plots how popular certain names were over each state.

Definitely a handy site if you are actually looking for baby name ideas, trying to come up with a character name for that next great novel, or simply looking up information on your own name.
