Written from a Wiccan perspective by a Wiccan priestess, this book contains nearly 5,000 names taken from modern and ancient sources: nature, mythology, history, fantasy literature, magical places, and faraway lands. Names are indexed alphabetically and by the characteristics they invoke for ease of use. Select a name that reflects who you truly are.

A Fantasy Gamers Paradise... July 17, 2003

As a 25 year vetran of d20 role-playing games I have been searching for a definitive collection of names beyond the standard Jack and Jill and I have finally found it in "The Complete Book of Magical Names". While I have a passing interest in Wicca, I mostly purchased the book to help me satisfy my long term facination with language and particularly the names used by various ancient cultures and civilizations. I am positive that any writer or gamer would find this book an excellent edition to their collection.
Looking for a magickal name? June 22, 2003
Neil J. Hajba (Los Angeles, CA United States)
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Whether you are looking for a craft name or a legal name, this book offers you some 'magickal' options in a fun and informative manner. Not the biggest of best name book on the market, but certainly the only one (that I am aware of) that is targeted to a Pagan audience. This book would be helpful to newbies and should be in any coven/grove library.
A wonderful reference manual for Pagans and Non-Pagans alike October 5, 2002

I am a Pagan, I am also a writer and avid role-player and this book has been invaluable to me in every aspect of those things. I highly recommend this book not only for Pagans but also for writers and rp'ers who just get stumped when it comes to coming up with names like me. You will absolutely love this book.
 how authentic is it? September 8, 2002
Tindómerel (Finland)
12 out of 13 found this review helpful
An interesting book with lots of beautiful names... but how authentic are they? Would you really dare to name your children after the names given in this book? As a Finnish reader I was most amused (and a bit annoyed too) by the Finnish names given in the book. For example Nakki means a sausage in the Finnish language and the proper and right name for the water elf (which is by the way usually seen most evil and tricky in folklore) would have two oh so important dots above the letter a, thus:ä.It makes me wonder how right and authentic the rest of the names are from the cultures and languages i don't know? A good source for role play characters anyway.
