 Welcome to

 names.com

Where real people get real ideas for real names for real babies.
 
This site was created because there seemed to be a lack of sites around that took a simple approach to suggesting a name for your baby. If you want a site that gives you endless thousands of obscure suggestions that your child will not thank you for in later life then you may be disappointed.
Here you will find the most popular names from around the world. If you want a strange name in the family give one to the cat, who won't mind.
