Re: How to Retrieve Name Meanings Using the Behind the Name API?
Thank you, Mike, for the clarification.Is there a paid option available that would allow me to access the name meaning/history information via the API for use in my app? I would really appreciate any details you could provide regarding this, including pricing and licensing terms.Thanks again for your help!

Thank you for the clarification, Mike.Based on the information provided on the copyright page, I understand that while the text itself cannot be used in a third-party app, I was wondering if it would be permissible to display the name along with its origins and meanings as long as I include a link back to the Behind the Name website for each entry.Would this approach comply with your usage policy?I appreciate your guidance on this!Best regards,
nada
