An instant classic in the fields of both personality analysis and baby naming, The Secret Universe of Names is a book to give, to amuse and educate, to speculate about, and to keep forever.

Which names are the sexiest? The most powerful? How does your name or your child’s name determine destiny? Why are people whose names begin with the letter ‘J’ 250% more likely to become millionaires than people whose names begin with the letter ‘N’? Why are ‘I’ people becoming doctors at four times the rate of ‘O’ people? Why do the Keiths of the business world statistically out-perform the Nigels by almost 300%?

The Secret Universe of Names explains, in fascinating detail and name-by-name example, how the sounds of a specific name evoke basic, gut reactions and what this means for you and yours.

Quoted everywhere from Parenting to The Wall Street Journal, with over a million copies of their books in print, bestselling authors Linda Rosenkrantz and Pamela Redmond Satran are the baby-name experts. In this fresh and expanded new edition of “the best baby-naming book ever written” (The News Journal), they offer irresistible lists of names you won’t find anywhere else, along with their trademark wit and insight on the most important questions—and answers—for expectant parents:

Style:
What’s hot and what’s cool–including Honest Names, Spiritual Names, Kreeatif Names, The Two-Syllable Solution, Word Names, The Exotics, and a Girl Named Boy.

Popularity:
The most popular names in America and around the world, and whatcelebrities are naming their babies.

Image:
What’s really in a name, and why Briyana spells trouble

Sex:
What’s it like for a girl to grow up with a traditionally feminine name like Abigail or Blossom; a no-frills name like Alice or Jane; or a unisex name like Dylan or Dakota? And are there any decidedly masculine names left for boys?

Tradition: A concise history of American baby-naming, plus inspired ways to reflect your own cultural heritage.

Family: Whose name is it, anyway? and other vital considerations.

“Unlike garden-variety baby-name guides…[Beyond Jennifer & Jason] lays it on the line.”—Entertainment Weekly


For expectant parents, it’s part of the tradition to pore endlessly over baby-name books searching for the perfect moniker. Names carry stereotypes, vary in perceived attractiveness (a blond bombshell named Gertrude?), and help influence how we see ourselves. As Sigmund Freud once said, “A human being’s name is a principal component in her person, perhaps a piece of his soul.” In Beyond Jennifer and Jason, Madison and Montana, name experts Linda Rosenkrantz and Pamela Redmond Satran present a baby-name book that goes far beyond the usual name lists and definitions. Satran and Rosenkrantz provide a thorough history of American naming traditions, discuss the psychological and sociological impact of names, and, yes, include list after list after list of possibilities organized into categories: popular names, old-fashioned names, comfy names, yuppie names, African-American names, androgynous names, Shakespearean names, unpopular names, creative names, mythological names, effective and ineffective middle names, classical names… and so on. Annotated with humorous notes, descriptions, quotes, and name-derivation definitions, the book is a fun and fascinating read even for those not debating between Gravity and Jane or Mason and Hendrick. –Ericka Lutz

Larry McMurtry’s “funny and brutal” (New York Times) landmark novel The Last Picture Show introduced the shrinking oil-patch town of Thalia, Texas, and its teenaged residents Duane, Sonny, and Jacy. In Texasville, the trio grew up to “adultery and madness, bankruptcy and boom times,” (New York Daily News). Now McMurtry takes his most colorful characters into their twilight years — in an unforgettable end to the Thalia saga.

Surrounded by his children, all of whom are going through tumultuous transitional times; his promiscuous wife, Karla, who is with her own demons; and his friend Sonny, who seems to be dying, Duane can’t make sense of his life anymore. The stark realization that he has spent his whole life in a miserable dust-bowl town throws him into a protracted end-of-life crisis — one that will hurtle him toward unexpected love, profoundly affect old friends, and cause him to embark on outlandish new beginning.

McMurtry’s strongest and most appealing contemporary novel since Terms of Endearment, Duane’s Depressed is utterly unsentimental, often hilarious, sometimes tragic and shocking, and in the end full of hope.At 62, ever-dependable oil man Duane Moore ditches his pickup and starts walking everywhere–deeply deviant behavior in one-stoplight Thalia, Texas. “It occurred to him one day–not in a flash, but through a process of seepage, a kind of gas leak into his consciousness–that most of his memories, from his first courtship to the lip of old age, involved the cabs of pickups,” Larry McMurtry writes. Yet oddly enough, Duane’s marriage, four children and nine grandchildren, his career highs and lows, all occurred when he was nowhere near his vehicle. Within days he has moved into his cabin on a hill, reacquired his dog, Shorty the Sixth (“an air of slight guilt was typical of all the Shortys”), and begun to think on these things. Of course, this brings on an additional problem: “He realized that for the first time in his life he had too much time to think; of course he had wanted more time to think, but that was probably because he hadn’t realized how tricky thinking could be.”

Luckily for readers, Duane’s attempts to go off the grid are far from successful. Thus do we have the deep pleasures of his comical and complex encounters with his wife, Karla, and family, not to mention some of Thalia’s singular citizens. As ever, McMurtry’s dialogue and narration snaps and surprises. He makes his hero’s solitude, and his increasing depression, infinitely intriguing. Will Duane’s attempts to literally and figuratively cultivate his garden succeed? Will he forge his way through the three volumes of Proust that his attractive new psychiatrist has prescribed in lieu of Prozac? Will the catfish that has found its way into his waterbed survive? Answers to these and many other questions await you in Duane’s Depressed, the final book of the marvelous trilogy McMurtry began with The Last Picture Show and Texasville. Let us pray that it turns into a quartet: we need far more of Duane and his family. For a start, his granddaughter Barbi–”a dark midge of a child”–merits a volume of her own. –Kerry Fried
