This is a better-than-average name book, as it features some unusual names not found in earlier volumes. Some of them are kind of hippy-ish, or new-agey (hence the title), and it's nice to see more variety. I still think I prefer the book which features more ethnic names, but this is a good one. Didn't use it when naming my son, but I have used it to help find names for characters in fiction that I've written. ( )
