Maryanna Korwitts, a so-called “professional nameologist,” is now offering First Name Report Cards. Here’s what the report card for Nancy says:
* Health: B+
* Financial Potential: B+
* Professional/Job Success: A-
* Relationship/Compatibility: B
* Charisma/Sex Appeal: A
* Communication Ability: A
Also, I share my “first name vibration with the likes of Celine Dion, Denzel Washington and Ellen DeGeneres.” (Interesting! Who knew names vibrated.)
This reminds me of the equally ridiculous name descriptions offered by the Kabalarians, who have had a name site up since at least the late ’90s. Their page on Nancy includes brilliant nuggets like:
This name inclines you to be sympathetic and generous to those in difficult or unfortunate circumstances.
You can be firm, positive, and independent in your own ideas and in reaching your own decisions, yet when it comes to taking action or following things through to completion, you often need encouragement.
Forer Effect, anyone?
(The report card site was an excellent find by Nancy Friedman of Fritinancy. She learned about it via Tate Linden of Thingnamer.)
