“What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.”
(Shakespeare - from Romeo and Juliet)

Many names are given
To babies, small and sweet
Some will have Biblical names
And ‘old fashioned’ names will compete.
Others will have ‘made up’ names
Some modern - others plain
But whatever a name is given
It often suits the child,
The answers still the same.
For the parents pick and choose the name
To fit in with their style
Until such time the child grows up
Some may keep it for a while.

Some may wish to change their name
When they reach a certain stage
If their name they think quite odd
(Like the kids of famous stars)
And insist they want to change.

Our list of names now follows
From the Hebrew and the Greek
There are some that are Latin
Or Roman to name a few
Could your name be among them?
Just take a look - won’t you?
