What Your Name Says About Your Personality

my name is nevaeh and every time I try to look up the meaning it says something about this rock star band or heaven or angels or something, and i’m just like nooo I want to know the REAL MEANING, can you find one that actually talks about my personally and the ACTUAL meaning or something please I’m begging you…

My name means alyssa

Yeah, lol. Maybe 30% of my name prediction was applicable to me, which is probably not any better (if not worse) than a random-generated set of characteristics strewn together.

Wow. Mine was so accurate it’s scary. Especially this phrase-

“She is capable of making a smooth and sudden transformation from an almost silent, reserved little girl into an incessant chatterbox if one is successful in winning her trust.”

Spot. On.

I am an INTJ and my name is Jill and they are both spot on for my personality. Very interesting.

“Andréa appreciates privacy, tranquillity and is strongly drawn to religion, esotericism… As a child, Andréa is emotionally very fragile and often lacks vitality.” Haha. I’m a very happy and outgoing atheist/humanist and when I recently watched old videos of me as a child I thought that when I have kids, I’d hope they’d jump around a little less. I don’t know how my parents could cope with a kids with that many ants in the pants;)

My given name is “Stasha”-which isnt in the database, but “Natasha” (the name from which my mother based my name) WAS weirdly accurate!!

My name is not in the database 😕

I did my daughter Lauren and it says if she is the daughter, I should nurture her artistic side (she’s been thriving in choir, piano, dance and drawing classes, not all at the same time of course). Pretty cool! Of course, I’d recommend the Myers Briggs to anyone (ISFJ speaking here)!

Mine was so oddly on point! “particularly communicative”–I am a writer :)

you said it eerie!
my name is Catherine and here’s what they say:” A formal education may not necessarily be her first choice, unless she has a strong motivation to do so. All the same, she is in possession of an excellent memory, has an innate psychological understanding and is therefore shrewd and highly critical. She could be attracted to the social sciences (psychology, sociology, child care or education…), especially if she was born on the 2nd, 11th, 20th or 29th of the month.”
I was born on July 29th and am a …teacher!All the above are a perfect match!
Sadly, I couldn’t find my daughter’s name in the list (ZELIE) Just to see what to expect!!
Thanks you for great basic entertainment!

My name wasn’t listed either! Darn! I can never find (Lendy) anywhere!

Mine was about 50/50. The parts that were on point were very true about me, and the other stuff was soooo off-base!

I’d say mine is dead on! But my husband’s is so laughably not! But I put our names into the compatibility test and apparently we are very compatible. phewf!

oh shoot! the server broke because of the traffic. i’m sure it will be up later on. sorry!

I was going back and forth on mine until I got here: “She seems to enjoy confrontation”.

And then: ” She is likely to be attracted to a profession connected to the world of business, related to trade or travel, or with a certain power”.

I’m a people pleaser who works at a federal agency that deals in preserving history. The only thing I have power over is my desktop wallpaper.

haha, sounds like from these comments, they either get it exactly right…or not at all :)

Mine described me to a T, which was a bit surprising given how generic these types of sites can be.

My first name was not listed, but I read the page for my nickname instead. It was pretty good overall I thought, but a little troubling.

Ah mine is not on point at all! At least I hope not. My name is Julia and pretty much everything they wrote makes me out to be the worst person ever.
The overall message is that I am greedy, opinionated and if I don’t get my way I will complain and be moody until I finally get it. It also says I am more focused on my career and money than family life and that couldn’t be farther from who I am.
I will show my husband tonight and see if he agrees with the meaning on the website haha.

Haha no, it was not very true for me and my husband! But check out the descriptions of people based on the day they were born, have you ever seen that book? It was spot on for everyone I looked up!

As an aside, don’t you love the HONY Facebook page? My 8-year-old wants to be stopped by Brandon next time we are in NYC (we live in London and have no current plans to revisit the city!).

WOW. I am a little freaked out by how accurate this was for me.

Sadly, my name is never available for these things. What does that say about me, I wonder?…

oh, yes, this is pretty accurate. it said that i can be a perfectionist and that i should go into a social profession that emphasizes accuracy and attention to detail, which practically screams journalism — my major in college! :)

My name is missing too:(

Dagmara

Ha! Mine and my boyfriend’s are spot-on!

Haha! This is brilliant. My husband who is such a cynic let me read a description to him and he guessed correctly who in our family it was! All of us 4, were pretty accurate although my girl is only 15months but there were definatley some traits! I felt like a 12 yr old doing the comparability test! Ha ha ha

I thought this was BS until I read this:

“Lauren is a tender and sentimental soul who would do almost anything for for those she loves. She has a true sense of friendship and solidarity while she is attracted by the irrational, mystery, magic and the weird and wonderful.”

I would be surprised if the description for my boyfriend was, “irrational, mysterious, magical, weird, and wonderful.”

@lendy, bummer! (btw lendy is such a cute name!)

Silly but fun. My description was nothing like me, though in paragraphs and paragraphs of description, you’re bound to find a few things that fit the bill (:

My full name is Katharine, which was not accurate at all (it said I like romance and beauty and gifts, especially diamonds… no).

But when I looked up Kate, which I go by, it was spot on! A “natural air of authority,” “independence and the need to be in charge,” “the urge to withdraw themselves from the world,” “they can often be overly rigid where their principles are concerned,” “a profound sense of justice, experiencing fierce rage when they encounter iniquity.” Literally spot on! So cool!

Marianne: Lively, communicative and adaptable. That’s VERY spot on. (I even majored in communication :-)
