Name book
Bought this book as a present for a friend as she wanted some inspiration for Scottish baby names. Unfortunately the book seemed to have a strong leaning towards Welsh names, but they're were also Scottish, Breton and Irish names in there too. And there were certainly plenty that you wouldn't come up with yourself! Not an exhaustive list but a reasonable selection. Maybe wouldn't have bought it if I'd actually been able to flick through it in a shop.
