| Summary | "History of Christian Names" by Charlotte M. Yonge is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the origins and meanings of Christian names, exploring their connections to language, culture, and religion across various regions. Yonge's extensive research illustrates how a name can reflect national character and the broader context of societal values. The opening of this volume features a preface where the author expresses her motivation for undertaking such a comprehensive study over many years. She acknowledges the complexities she faced in gathering information about Christian names, especially as previous scholarly contributions were often lacking in accuracy. Yonge introduces the scope of her research, noting her aim to classify names by language and meaning rather than merely listing them alphabetically, thus hinting at the broader exploration and analysis to come in subsequent chapters.
