So I came across one of these websites into which you type your name and gender, and it then regurgitates what your name means. I was referred to it by a friend that goes by the handle of "Hentai Joe" (an appropriate name for a friend of mine, natch), and we put in our first names and those of our loved ones and found it rather freakishly accurate.
We then got around -- oh, life on the internet! -- to putting in video game characters' names. Highlights:
- Although the name Link creates idealism and the urge to help others, we emphasize that it causes a blunt expression that alienates others.
- This name, when combined with the last name, can frustrate happiness, contentment, and success, as well as cause health weaknesses in the nervous system, and tension or accidents to the head.
- Your name of Link has given you an idealistic nature with a desire to help others.
- Your initiative often causes you to be the first to act when you see a need.
- Since you are impressionable and receptive, you feel the misfortunes of others very keenly.
- However, this name makes it awkward for you to express your deeper thoughts and feelings with finesse and diplomacy to the extent that your candid, sometimes blunt, manner of speaking creates misunderstandings with others.
- Being somewhat self-centred, you learn through your own experiences, as you rarely take advice from others.
- Yet, you are sensitive and very easily hurt and offended.
- You long for praise and appreciation for your efforts, but others find it difficult to understand you.
- Your first name of Aeris has given you a rather quiet, reserved, serious, studious nature.
- You have sensitivity and appreciation for the finer and deeper things of life, the beauties of nature, music, art, and literature.
- The people who mean the most to you are those who can offer you intellectual companionship.
- It is only when you are among those who understand your deeper nature that you can really be yourself.
- The experience of having your remarks taken lightly or belittled, particularly during the early years of your life, has caused you to keep your thoughts and feelings to yourself.
- Your first name of Mario makes you a quick thinker, both philosophical and creative.
- You appreciate music, art, and drama and, if given training, could excel in those fields.
- Self-consciousness may prevent you from feeling at ease in positions of impromptu expression.
- Desiring to be free from detail and monotony, you find it difficult to finish what you start if it does not hold your interest.
- You enjoy reading and the beauties of nature, experiencing peace and relaxation in outdoor activities.
