Picking Baby Names Using Numerology

Picking Baby Names Using Numerology | California Psychics

Numerology and Destiny

Names are important. Whenever parents name a baby, there’s usually some real thought given to what title their child will bear as long as they live. Loving parents want their children to be proud of their given names so, when choosing a name for your baby, you might ask yourself what kind of life you want your child to have. What personal qualities would you like to see grow in them? Well, thanks to numerology, you can give your child a head start, imbuing certain qualities into their very name.

What’s in a Name?

According to the ancient Romans, names can be prophetic. They believed names hold a predictive power. Psychologist Carl Jung thought that people were drawn to professions that fit their name. Perhaps you’ve heard the Latin proverb: “nomen est omen” or, the name is a sign. Names can have an effect on a person’s destiny. Not only do names mean different things in different languages, they are also associated with numbers, which have significant meanings as well.

Numerology, Naming, and Numbers

Numerology is the study of numbers, based on the belief that a relationship exists between numbers and everything in the Universe, and the numbers in a person’s name plays a powerful role in their destiny.

Most modern numerology charts are based on the Pythagorean system. Pythagoras, an ancient Greek philosopher, believed that everything could be explained in terms of numbers, and that the numbers associated with certain letters could be interpreted as having meaning, including astrological meaning. He gave a numeric value to each letter in cycles of 9.

The three numbers associated with a name are the Destiny Number, the Personality Number, and the Soul Urge Number.

  • The Destiny Number is calculated from the letters in your full name (first, middle, and last)
  • The Personality Number is calculated only from the consonants in your name
  • The Soul Urge Number is calculated from the vowels in your name

Numerology Solutions and Their Meanings

Here’s an example of the Destiny Number, which is used in our video. Let’s take the name of Harry James Potter from the Harry Potter book series by J.K. Rowling.

When you add up the numbers for each of his names, “Harry” is 34, “James” is 12, and “Potter” is 31. This brings the total to 77. Since the number 77 is not a master number, you would break it down like so: 7 + 7 = 14, and then break this down to: 1 + 4 = 5. Harry is adventurous, fun, and loves freedom. He gets along with all kinds of people and adores traveling far and wide. He is courageous and tends to ultimately succeed at whatever he tries to do.

Watch the video below to learn how to determine your Destiny Number:

Here are the traits associated with each number:

  1. Leader, independent, self-reliant, pioneer
  2. Cooperative, considerate, adaptable, healer
  3. Social, expressive, joyful, communicator
  4. Strong, practical, reliable, determined
  5. Adventurous, playful, freedom-loving, visionary
  6. Responsible, nurturing, balanced, loving
  7. Knowledgeable, analytical, introspective, researcher
  8. Powerful, authoritative, material-minded, grounded
  9. Selfless, humanitarian, tolerant, creative

There are only three double digit numbers that you do not break down into their smallest forms if they appear as your Destiny Number: 11, 22, and 33. They are known as the Master Numbers, and they not only emulate some of the traits of single digit number they could be (2=11, 4=22, etc.) but they amplify those traits as well.

11. Leader, intuitive, charismatic, creative

22. Practical, idealistic, ambitious, disciplined

33. Humanitarian, considerate, nurturing, teacher

Like your DNA, the numbers in your birth date are permanent, and the numbers in the name you were given at birth will also be with you all your life. However, if you desire to change your karmic energy, your name can be changed, and that way the numerological value and effect of your original name can be modified to some degree. A numerology chart is a deep and complex matter, and any of our gifted Numerologists here at California Psychics will be glad to assist you in picking the perfect name for your baby.

      Hi Lauren,

      According to numerology and a book I read that talks about numerology and the meaning of our names and the importance of choosing a good name, The book is in Spanish called La magia de tu nombre ( the magic of your name) by Rosa Maria Cifuentes I got the ebook version. I would recommend you to use your middle name Alice which means leadership , very hardworker and will help you financially. The book talks about for example how the initials A, J and S in a name mean leadership and are good initials to use to name a child for example. Ava , Alice, Jade , Jaiden , Alexandra . I highly recommend the book.
