Names are really interesting. We've all have one or two or three or more, but where do they come from and what do they mean? Why would a celebrity name their child Apple or Moxie Crimefighter? What name would you choose for yourself if you had the chance? Learn where your name might have come from and explore what's behind it. Read a few "Name Nibbles" included in the book which explains where names name like Jona Jonsdottir and Yao Ming come from.

Have you ever heard of the Marufuku Company? Maybe you have heard of Nintendo, one of the most successful Name-Change stories.
