how to create a strong full name

THE FULL NAME subliminal, established by the blend of a first name, last name and sometimes middle name or initial, summarizes and helps predict the quality and character of an individual's relationships, job environment and financial circumstances. And the look and sound of the full name creates a person's "identity effect" on the senses.

Most people do have a variety of choices when it comes to the full name. For women, those choices can fluctuate throughout life by way of marriage or divorce. Keep in mind that the full name appears on bank accounts, contracts, credit cards, business agreements, tax returns, driver's licenses, passports and titles of ownership. Thus, it is in the arenas of finance, business, travel, contractual agreement, personal ownership, professional partnership and legal justice that the full name plays the biggest role. Your child's full name will mark his or her entry into life on the birth certificate, and it will carry on the vibration of remembrance, even after physical departure. Needless to say, the creation of the full name requires care and consideration.

Take the time to select a complementary formal name combination that is best suited to the realization of your baby's future goals. In some instances, a middle name or initial is advisable, but in other cases the first and last name alone may bring the most balance and harmony.

In determining a full name for your child, several factors should be addressed:

  1. Rhythm and flow: Consider the number of syllables in your family surname and how the rhythm of that last name will sound when combined with a particular first name. There's no set of rules here. It's a matter of what appeals to the ear. Some prefer a short first name to complement a long last name... Bo Zampopendowski. However, multiple syllables in both first and last name can work quite well also...Mari-Laurette Harlington. Just be sure the tongue isn't forced to twist when the name is said. Leyla Lilliburgen could be quite a mouthful!

  2. In the middle: Determine if you want to add a middle name into the mix. If so, chose only a name that will maintain the balance already established by the first and last name. The middle initial should hold its own energetically when inserted into the full name equation. And the middle name should energetically support your child's self-image.

  3. Professional guidance: Consider a baby naming package with professional nameologist, Maryanna Korwitts to receive education and guidance with your choices. Because the energy of language is invisible, it is next to impossible to judge the value of a name through external elements. Consult with Maryanna at the beginning of the process or at the end to verify your choices and to be sure the balance is complete.

  4. Trying things on: Before the baby is born, use the full name yourself every chance possible to see the response. Be creative in finding appropriate circumstances where you can role-play. You'll get a good feel for what your child will face! You will also get a good feel for what your child will be like.

  5. The merging of name and nature: Remember that the day of birth helps determine your baby's innate personality. Until your baby is actually born, you won't know exactly what the dominant natural traits and tendencies will be. Consequently, the final decision between several possible names might best be made during the 24 hours following the birth. (Many new parents have been known to call Maryanna, pen and birth certificate in hand, from the hospital for the final word.) As an example, Jasmine is an extremely strong name for a girl but if your new daughter is born on a day that will encourage her independence, a name like Jasmine might be overkill. Likewise, if your son is born with a quiet, sensitive nature, you might bypass a name like Dustin which brings some expressiveness, for a name like Braden that totally ups the volume on assertiveness.
