babynamesworld will send you 3 suggestions every day by email - they've got LOADS of names from lots of different origins

bounty website has a good thing where you can put in what names you like and it will tell you how many times its been registered etc this year

American, of course. Both my DSs' names peaked in their birth years - wonder if I would have named them differently had I known. Doubt it.

I find Baby Name Wizard's NameVoyager fascinating.

I liked the new age baby name book for names that are a bit different.

I got 40,001 baby names while I was expecting ds. Although its very big and you'll probably count out most of the names it has a really wide variation.
