Believe it or not, there are rules in place that restrict what names can be given, and it all depends on where you live. Alabama In Alabama, you can name baby anything you want — last name included. Only the English alphabet is allowed. Apostrophes, hyphens, periods and spaces are okay. California Derogatory or obscene names are banned in California. Only the 26 characters of the English alphabet are allowed, which rules out umlauts and others. Colorado Colorado has no limit on the length of a name, but you need to be able to spell it using a standard keyboard, so no graphic symbols or foreign characters.
Georgia Symbols are off-limits in Georgia, and yes, that includes accent marks. Hawaii There are no limitations. Idaho In Idaho, only letters are allowed. Special characters such as asterisks are banned. Illinois There are no restrictions on what a parent may name a child. Indiana No rules regarding first names in Indiana! Kansas Kansas explicitly requires that babies be given a last name and bans the use of symbols.
Accent marks are allowed though. Massachusetts Only letters found on the standard English keyboard may be used in baby names in Massachusetts. Minnesota Numbers and all special characters are banned in Minnesota. Apostrophes and hyphens are the only punctuation allowed.

Each letter is going to be assigned a different numerical value. You can also write the letters vertically; as long as they are in order and organized you can choose either direction. Assign each letter a digit from 1 to 9. Start with the letter A. For example, B will have a 2, and C is 3.
Write out your full name. To find out your true name number, or Expression number, you will need to use your full birth name. You can find your entire name on your birth certificate or an official identification document. If you have legally changed your name, use that name since that is now how you identify yourself. Match each letter in your name to its corresponding number.
Now that each letter has a numerical value, you can start putting numbers with the letters in your name. Below where you have written your name, write each number that goes with each individual letter. You will have some duplicates, but that is not a problem. For example, if your name is John Jacob Smith, then all of the Js will get a 1, the Os will get a 6, the Hs will get an 8, and so on.
Part 2. Using a calculator or a pencil and paper, add together every single digit from your name. If your name has 20 letters, you will be adding together 20 individual numbers. You will end up with a 2-digit sum after adding everything together. After you have added your numbers together, you will have a double or triple-digit sum, if your name is long. To reduce the sum, add together the 2 digits within it.
The 7 is your true name number. Leave the Master Numbers as double digits. These are the 3 Master numbers, which can add difficulty but also depth to the personality you are discovering or the topic of numerology you are studying.
These 3 numbers have their own personality explanations. They are reduced when they are found within a date or number equation. For example, if a total sum is a Master number, do not reduce it. But if there is a Master number within the equation, go ahead and reduce an 11 to a 2 or a 33 to a 6 to simplify the equation. Part 3. Match your name number to the basic numbers of numerology.
Once you have your name number, you can look up that number in a numerology chart to find out more about yourself. Whether you were intentionally named with a numerology result in mind or your name number is by chance, knowing your number sign can perhaps give you some insight into your personality. Some sources differ slightly in their descriptions of each number, but overall, their general descriptors remain similar: 1 — Initiator of action, pioneering, leading, independent, attaining, individualistic 2 — Cooperation, adaptability, consideration of others, partnering, mediating 3 — Expression, verbalization, socialization, the arts, the joy of living 4 — Values foundation, order, service, struggle against limits, steady growth 5 — Expansiveness, visionary, adventure, the constructive use of freedom 6 — Responsibility, protection, nurturing, community, balance, sympathy 7 — Analysis, understanding, knowledge, awareness, studious, meditating 8 — Practical endeavors, status-oriented, power-seeking, high-material goals 9 — Humanitarian, giving nature, selflessness, obligations, creative expression 11 — Higher spiritual plane, intuitive, illumination, idealist, a dreamer 22 — The Master Builder, large endeavors, powerful force, leadership.
Discover your soul, destiny, and personality name number. Name numbers are often referred to by other names such as your life path number. Your soul number will tell you your likes, dislikes, and deepest desires.
Assign only the vowels in your first name and last name numbers, add them to find the sum, and reduce the sum to find your soul number. Your personality, or inner dreams, number is found by giving only the consonant letters a number. To find your destiny name number, you will follow the same process to find your normal name number.
When differentiating between vowels and consonants, treat Ys and Ws with special care. Conversely, if Ys and Ws are being used in a name as consonants, do not give them numbers for a personality name number. BDM will not register names that contain punctuation in any position in the name.
