what’s a good website to find out what baby names mean?

I once found a site, you could type in a name and you could chose if it was for a boy or a girl, then it would have the meaning of that name and the Origin, does anybody know what the name of the site is called? are there any other good sites kinda like this? Also I’m not having a baby or anything, I just like to know what names mean

    i really like this site just type the name in the top thing also if you are looking for names you can do the advanced search just click female or male origin and a letter and it will give you a list of names to choose from

    One of the websites with the most reliable name meanings is:
    http://www.behindthename.com/
    The names are well-researched, and if the meaning of a name is uncertain, it will often list several possible derivations.

    If you are trying to do a meaning search, though, I recommend:
    http://babynamesworld.parentsconnect.com/meaning-search.html
    Let’s say you wanted to find a name that means “princess.” If you did a meaning search at Behind The Name, it would list not only names that literally mean princess, but also names that have the word “princess” anywhere in their descriptions (such as Adela, Kelly, Spencer, and Ursula, which have been the given names or surnames of real or fictitious princesses). A meanings search at Baby Names World will give you only those names which literally mean “princess,” so you’ll have fewer names to wade through in order to find what you want.
