Summary Los nombres de las personas encierran su propio significado y están cargados de mucho simbolismo y poder. Conocerlos es esencial tanto para elegir el nombre de un bebé como para saber cómo es la personalidad de quien lo lleva. En todas las culturas y creencias a los nombres se les otorga gran importancia porque nos acompañan durante toda la vida y constituyen una parte esencial del núcleo de la individualidad.
People's names each have their own meaning and are filled with symbolism and power. Knowing more about them is essential both for choosing the name for a baby or knowing what personality to expect from someone based upon their name. In all cultures and beliefs, names are incredibly important because they stay with us throughout our lives and they are essential for our individuality. This volume contains over 400 names and each of them includes: their entomology, its translation and transcription in Russian, Japanese and Arabic (if one exists), the characteristics of the personality relative to said name, the magic number which corresponds to it, the onomastic day which corresponds and a brief biography of someone with this name.
