Editor's review of NameSpire
This program offers plenty of ways to research names even though its information has not been updated since 2003. Using the program's Namealyze feature, users can customize a search using gender, syllables, vowels, consonants, length, origin, and meaning options, or search through names one by one. Similar programs include a standard search for the most popular names in a given year, but this program's Popularity tab goes beyond the basics and offers many unique search functions including names that have declined in popularity each year or largest year-to-year gain in popularity. With more than 4,700 names in the database, the well-designed and friendly interface makes the name-search process fun. NameSpire includes an optional Tips window at start-up but lacks the ability to print results. Strangely enough, the program cannot be uninstalled directly from the Start menu, though you can remove it via the Control Panel. The fully-functional seven-day trial is enough to gives expectant-parents a feel for its value.
