Book Description
Have you ever met a Bruce who is an innocent knucklehead? Do you think a girl called Sky has never sunbaked in the nude? Why is that? Is there really a connection between name and personality? Why shouldn't I call my son Clint? is the world's first name (theory) book that, with uncanny accuracy, describes the personality of nearly 2000 names used in Australia today, including many nicknames. The book is a must-read if: You're about to bring a child into the world and want to give it a name that won't destroy its life; You work with an idiot and you wonder how they became an idiot; Your parents called you Nigel, Colleen or Kingston and you wonder why the world treats you differently. Emma: Like the surface of a swollen river after the monsoon, she's smooth and bubbling on the surface, but all those m's are almost too perfect to be true because beneath them is a chaotic riverbed of drama and complexity. Befriend one and you must ask yourself the question: Can I swim?
