Wish the data was more recent, and sometimes the favorite button reflects a previous name clicked on. But otherwise, love browsing all the name data!

You can only add 6 favorites. Also they didn't transfer name meanings to the different spellings. So if you want to know a manning you need to search for the "original" spelling

Not free. I thought I would be able to save names I liked to show my man later but only allowed 4 before you are forced to pay. I'd rather spend my money on things my baby needs. Also most names don't have meanings so you'll have to look them up elsewhere.

Good app. But...nothing ruins a potential baby name more than having it say "pornographic actor" in giant letters as the most common profession. porn stars typically use alias name so why is it necessary to say that a name has a high percentage of pornogrpahic actors. Ugh! Also, I wish you could fllter by syllable count.

Great app! I thought it would make looking at names harder to just have a list, but they break it up super well and made it easy for us to come up with a list of names really quickly!

I deleted it because you can only save a couple names before it wants you to pay. Plus the boy and girl columns are right next to each other, and you can't just look at one or the other.

I would like to be able to search names using more than one trait. For example, I would like to search for names that are vintage and a bit rare. Also, it would be nice if the popularity data was updated.

Best baby name ap out there. Only downfall is that there are no settings to allow you to look at girl or boy only names. It lists both side by side. It would be cool if it allowed you to choose the gender as some other aps do. However i feel like this ap has the most variety and best filters other than the gender.

Decent selection of names and I like that you can add your own into your favorites. You do have to pay $1.99 to add more than around 8 or 10 each boy and girl names from their inventory into your favorites. I'd like more features.

Terrible layout and not a lot of options for filtering. The selections of regions is pretty good but the majority of the names aren't actually from that region. Overall, good idea, poor app. Don't recommend installing.

I'm so mad...I paid to favorite extra names and they only saved for that session. I had went through ALL of the masculine names and none of them saved. It took me hours. I use name apps in order to help with writing and such so I thought this would save me time from creating a spreadsheet but it wasted my time and money. Also a lot of pronunciations are wrong and many names do not have meanings or origins.

There's a feature on this app that's supposed to tell you how to pronounce the names, but it's awful. It's a computerised voice which doesn't pronounce names properly, like a really low-budget Siri sort if thing. It either says the names too fast or just completely wrong altogether. It pronounced Artemis as "art-mis", Ares as "arse" and Aurora as "roar-a" to name a few. The rest of the app is well thought out but a lot of the pronunciations are terrible. Not happy considering I paid to upgrade.

I loved using the Apple version of this app so when I realized it was available on Android I downloaded it and upgraded it just as I had it on my previous Apple sevice. I love this app I just wish the layout was similar to that of the Apple version. The layout makes using the app very unenjoyable. I would love to be able to filter my more than one option by and a custom search field. My rating would be 5 stars I'd the layout didn't annoy me so much.

I've been looking forever for a baby name app that doesn't have ads so I can use it to generate better names for my Sims, hahahah. This one does the job. Its user interface -- two side-by-side scrolls for the two genders -- is a bit frustrating to get used to, but it makes the scrolling faster, I suppose.

The idea and set-up is very cool, but I think I got up to about seven names before it asked to upgrade to add more. At least be upfront about this. Then again, it doesn't cost much. Also, it would be nice to have a name adding feature. A lot of names that I really like aren't on there. For the names that are on the list though, it gives a nice overview.

I've used this app for YEARS. I just re-downloaded to show a friend because it was always my favorite, and the new version is AWFUL. The original was head and shoulders above every other app I've tried, and now I'll be deleting it and looking for something different. Such a disappointment :(.

I have had this app for a number of years, always found it the better of the baby name apps, however the upgrade has hugely decreased my enjoyment of this app. I liked that I could search easily, find names in my liked list based on when I added them, and get information about name meanings etc without bright colours/swiping/gimmicks! Unfortunately, the user interface has been ruined by this update and sadly I'm unlikely to continue using it.
