Some people say none. But look what I found. It’s amazing how, except for the reference of not “finishing the projects you start”, “rather quick fading of enthusiasm”, and “flaky and irresponsible”, most of them kinda reflect my personality.
Shakespeare, in Romeo and Juliet, says, “A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet”. True. But with persons, would two or more persons with the same name have the same personality? Say, 2 Monicas, or 5 Marias? I suppose, not.
Check on your name. Is there a hidden meaning in it? The link is found below.

![]() You are balanced, orderly, and organized. You like your ducks in a row. You are powerful and competent, especially in the workplace. People can see you as stubborn and headstrong. You definitely have a dominant personality.You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It’s easy to get you excited… which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don’t stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. |
What’s Your Name’s Hidden Meaning?
On second thoughts, seems to me like this computer-generated personality test capitalizes on generic personalities. I checked on a longer name, and it had all sorts of things in it, though of course with the right programming, it would still give results that do not conflict.
Each person is unique in his or her own way. DOn’t you think so?

I checked on my nickname and my baptismal name. Like you, I was given different descriptions but were not conflicting. Kaya lang, tama din naman yung mga sinabi. At least it gets you to think about your strong and weak points
Yes, each person is unique and different in their own ways. If we’re of the same personality/behaviour then we’ll be of no difference with those we call robots.

Uniqueness is the way to go, diba?
What’s in a name? A lot!
A name represents the person you either love or hate. Sometimes, just hearing the name of the person is enough for you to be in cloud nine or makes your blood pressure rise to 101 degrees centigrade.
SexyMom: none—if it is a name alone. but if you match the person and the name, there’s really a lot into it, i agree with you.
