'Nuff said...

NaNoWriMo is over on the 30th. I tapped out about 25K words, and cut and pasted the rest from material I'd accumulated in the past month or two. So voila! I get to post this:


In the interim, my friend R told me to check out Roy Feinson's book The Secret Universe of Names. The concept is that your name imbues you with characteristics you have as well as the expectations others have of you.

So, I look up Nikka (the name of my beloved Angel Baby Girl): the words posted under 'NK' are 'strong-minded, steadfast, loyal.' Also 'irritable, judgmental, defensive.'

The letter N is alleged to have negative connotations - when added to K, they 'impart cantankerous but ultimately harmless.'
NK's are impervious to criticism, behave without regard to social norms and the expectation of others. Their unique personal styles are unencumbered by self-doubt.

If NK's were animals, they'd be foxes. Like dogs, they can't use brute force to win, but rely on charms and sharp minds to garner resources.

And then there's The White Dog, now a permanent fixture.
Tsuki. The 'ts' combo gives 'bright, good listener & mischievous' as characteristics. Others are procrastinating, unpredictable, sanctimonious. Since she's a dog, two of the three don't rate.

T is a symbol of decisiveness and resolve, but when added to sylphlike sound of S, gives rise to a defiant charm for these cheeky beings who are genuine. They're also vivacious and outgoing.

As for me - not so heartening.

2 N's combined are characterized as loving, inspiring, steady, as well as absent minded, myopic and unfocused. Remember that N is a 'negative' letter. Apparently binding two together makes 2 negatives a positive. Double N's is a manifestation of benign and maternal aspects of human nature.

Add on the sexy, sylph-like S, and think fancy, dance, flounce, elegance.

According to Feinson's text, NN's don't have big personalities. We're non-aggressive and tend to have a small circle of friends. We have highly developed instincts and powers of observation, and love trivia.

Few NN's achieve great heights in our professions. We lack killer instincts and don't need to prove things at work. NN's are drawn to the fields of education and medicine, and excel in endeavors that require patience and sensitivity.

As with most readings, some of this is spot on. Some (most?) of it isn't.
