From the publisher:
Future parents have many choices to make. Which colour should we paint the room? Do we give birth at home or in the hospital? And, most importantly: what will be the name of the baby? Evidently, you would like to pick a name that gives the child a headstart, that might even raise expectations and ultimately, a name that suits the successful and fabulous human being it will evolve into. In bygone days, children were named after Biblical or heroic figures.
But where do you find modern-day heroes? On the football field, of course! Names like Jari, Lionel, Cristiano or Johan – they immediately evoke an emotion or an image. With these football names your baby is ahead of the game.
The author:
Boudewijn Bosman works as an art director in Advertising. Tim Nikken is a writer, literary agent and works as a consultant for SThree PLC. They have known each other for a long time, and when Boudewijn was expecting a baby, Tim couldn't find an appropriate gift. That was when Football Baby Names was born.
