This delightful book supplies all the information you could ever need to choose the name that will be with your (South Africa) newborn for the rest of his or her life.;This collection truly has something for everyone. The book starts off with a very entertaining section in which famous and hip South African parents, like Dali Tambo, Tanya Fourie, Jane Hicks, Gillian van Houten, Francois Pienaar, etc, talk about their favourite baby names - entertaining and useful.
