Name number questions
Which name should I use?
Your full name as it appears on your birth certificate, including middle names. Numerologists read it as the toolkit you were given. A current or chosen name can be calculated too, and some people like to compare the two.
How does the letter chart work?
Pythagorean numerology numbers the alphabet from 1 to 9 and starts again: A is 1, I is 9, J is 1 again, and so on. Each name is added up and reduced, then the names are added together and reduced to 1 to 9, or kept as 11, 22 or 33.
Is my name saved?
No. The name is used to work out the number on this page and is never stored, logged or sent anywhere.
Is the expression number the same as the destiny number?
Yes. They are two names for the same number, worked out from your full birth name.
