Name Number is important for permanent success. A good name number gives the native long lasting success. Generally seen, that if the psychic, destiny and name number are compatible with each other, the quality of life of the native is excellent. The best combination possible is 3, 6 and 9 as all these numbers are compatible with each other and the ruling planets of these three numbers are also good. Having compatible numbers does not guarantee a life free from obstacles but the success is permanent. In other words, if the numbers are good and compatible life becomes much better. A perfect example would be say Ketan Parekh or Harshad Mehta. Both made headlines in the newspapers of India. Both have Name Number of 40, they were successful initially but later on they had a tragic end. On the other hand, if we see the name numbers of Shahrukh Khan (Name Number 42) and Salman Khan (Name Number 30), both have excellent name numbers and hence have grown gradually in their profession and have permanent success. Both of them made news because of the wrong reasons as well but that is a part of life.

According to different theories, different values to the alphabet are fixed. For example, according to the Chaldean theory the value of “G” is 3; on the other hand according to some other theory the value of “G” is 7. I would request you not to get confused here and follow Chaldean theory. Different theories have different ways of interpretation but since this course is based on Chaldean theory, I will advise you to remember the following values.

A, I, J, Q, Y = 1
B, K, R = 2
G, L, S, C = 3
D, M, T = 4
E, H, N, X = 5
U, V, W = 6
O, Z = 7
F, P = 8

A name number can be calculated as follows:

J U L I A R O B E R T S
1 6 3 1 1 2 7 2 5 2 4 3 = 1+6+3+1+1+2+7+2+5+2+4+3 = 37 = 1

Calculating a name number is fairly simple but what is difficult is to set a good name number which can make the life of a person better. I will not discuss in detail what each name number means but will explain which name number is the best for a particular date of birth.
The basic characteristics of the Name Numbers are as follows:

Name Number 1 – Sun rules this number. A good name number and gives power and luck to the native. This name number is perfect for a business man or someone into the service industry. It gives good leadership qualities and excellent self control as well. This number can be used by everyone except for people having problems in relationships with their partners.

Good Numbers: 37, 46, 55 and 64
Avoid Numbers: 28 and 82

Name Number 2 – Moon rules this number. A lot of people into creative field have this name number. It makes the person gentle and peace loving. It is not a strong name number, if the person is having problems with career; it is advised to change the name number.

Good Numbers: 38 and 47
Avoid Numbers: 20, 29 and 92

Name Number 3 – Jupiter rules this number. Many successful people have this number as their name number. It makes the native grow smoothly and there are fewer surprises in life if the psychic and destiny numbers are good. This number is good for inherited wealth as well. People not having children should use this name number as Jupiter is the planet which helps in conceiving.

Good Numbers: 21, 30, 39, 48 and 66
Avoid Numbers: 57 and 75

Name Number 4 – Rahu rules this number. This number should be strictly avoided as the name number. Initially the person might get success but later on everything is lost.

Good Numbers: 22 is seen to be lucky at times as it is a spiritual number but needs to be analyzed carefully
Avoid Numbers: Avoid all other Number 4

Name Number 5 – Mercury rules this number. This is an excellent name number for business men and sportsmen. Mercury being a fast moving planet gives speed to the native which is extremely beneficial in both the profession. This number can be used for people with other profession as well provided it is compatible with the psychic number or zodiac. An exhaustive table is provided below which will help you in choosing the right name number.

Good Numbers: 14, 23, 32, 41, 50 and 59
Avoid Numbers: 68 and 77 do not suit everyone.

Name Number 6 – Venus rules this number. This is an excellent number for people into the entertainment industry. It is a materialistic number and almost anyone can use this number as their name number. Number 6 is a universal number and anyone who is successful in the entertainment industry is seen to have 6 as one of their numbers or they have a strong Venus in their horoscope.

Good Numbers: 15, 24, 33, 42, 51 and 69

Avoid Numbers: 51 only for politicians and people in army

Name Number 7 – Ketu rules this number. This is a highly spiritual number and a Number 7 is needed as one of the numbers to be at the top of your profession. A lot of successful people have this name number but it is very risky to suggest this number as the name number. A numerologist generally does not suggest this number and should be avoided. On the other hand, if a person has this number as the name number, a numerologist should think carefully before suggesting another number.

Good Numbers: 25, 43 and 52
Avoid Numbers: 34

Name Number 8 – Saturn rules this number. A lot of successful people have this name number but this number does not suit everyone. In fact it is risky to use this number as this number gives extreme results. Anyone involved into illegal activities with this name number is sure to face problems in life. This number is seen to suit people if they have a strong Saturn in their horoscope. Horoscope is beyond the scope of this course so I would advise people not to suggest this name number.

Good Numbers: 26 and 35 but does not suit everyone
Avoid Numbers: 44, 53 and 62

Name Number 9 – Mars rules this number. This number gives a lot of energy and is a good name number but not among the best. At times, this number can be suggested as the name number but only to people who feel lazy or who lack the quality of taking initiatives. But again it is important to see that the number is one of the lucky numbers.

Good Numbers: 27, 36, 54 and 63
Avoid Numbers: 18 and 45

The following points needs to be noted before doing a name change:

• Always try to fix the new name out of the numbers 1, 3, 5 and 6 as these are the best name numbers possible. There are a few exceptions which will be discussed later but is not very important. A few examples of numbers 1, 3, 5 and 6 are 37, 39, 41, 42, 46, 48, 50 and 51.

• The name number of the full name is important but on the other hand the name number of the first name and the last name individually is also important. For example, the name number of Tiger Woods is 42, but the name number of Tiger and Woods individually is also important like Tiger is 15 and Woods is 27.

• The first name indicates self, the last name indicates the qualities you carry from your ancestors and the full name is your destiny which is the most important and given the maximum weight.

• A name is suggested on the basis of psychic number and the zodiac of an individual

• Name Number 4 and 8 should always be avoided and people with these name numbers should be advised to change the name number to a more suitable number.

• Numbers 28 and 29 should be changed immediately as well.

• People into entertainment industry should be given Number 6 provided it is among one of their lucky numbers according to the table below.

• People not getting married should be suggested to use the Number 6. Venus helps in getting married. Generally, if the Venus is weak in the horoscope people have problems in getting married. Giving a Number 6 as the name number will make the Venus strong and chances of getting married are more.

• People having problems in marriage life should be suggested to use Name Number 6

The number for a person can be chosen from the table below:

I have come up with the above combinations with research and experience. As suggested earlier, Name Numbers 1, 3, 5 and 6 can be used as the Name Number and I have mostly suggested those numbers in the above table.

Let’s see the examples of a few celebrities:

Shahrukh Khan born on 2nd November 1965
The above date makes him psychic 2 and zodiac Libra ruled by Venus or Number 6. According to the table above, the name numbers suggested to him are 1, 3 and 6. When we calculate his name number it comes to 42 or 6.
Salman Khan born on 27th December 1965

The above date makes him psychic 9 and zodiac Sagittarius ruled by Jupiter or Number 3. According to the table above, the name numbers suggested to him are 3 and 6. When we calculate his name number it comes to 30 or 3.

The above were the examples of celebrities who are really successful. But it is not necessary that you will find the names of all the celebrities according to the above table. The above table indicates the good name numbers and the numbers compatible to particular date combinations. It is safe to use the above suggested numbers while changing the name.
The above concept was based on only the full name number; however the first name and the last name are also important. Generally, people are not happy changing the surname, so to keep things simple I suggest people to change the first name and add an initial in between if needed. The first name should also be compatible to the date of birth but there is more flexibility here. Number 7 and 9 can also be used as the name number for the first name. Fixing the full name according to the table above is more important than fixing the first name. For first name, numbers 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9 can be used and 4 and 8 should be strictly avoided. You will see that a lot of celebrities have numbers 4 and 8 but not necessary that these numbers suit them. Whether an individual is a celebrity or not does not depend upon the date of birth that can only be determined from the horoscope of the person. Numbers only determine the delays and obstacles which a person will have to face during the course of his or her life. I used the example of Salman Khan earlier. Salman comes to 17 which is not an auspicious number. No wonder he had to face so many legal troubles in his life. It is difficult to find a perfect combination of numbers free from any problems. Some good combinations are (3, 6, 9) (2, 6, 7) (1, 1, 5) (1, 5, 7) (1, 2, 7) etc. Certain numbers are good as psychic while the others are good as destiny. We do not have control over the psychic or destiny number, so the only number which can be changed is the name number. Numbers 4 and 8 make the life difficult but if these numbers are psychic or destiny numbers, nothing much can be done. However, we can change the name number to a good number to remove the negativity of the psychic and destiny numbers.

For best results follow the table below:

Because of the size of the table, it was not possible to put it here, please send an email on [email protected] and the table will be emailed to you.

The above table indicates the best possible name numbers for the respective combinations. However, there is no hard and fast rule here. I have found the above number on the basis of my research and practical experience. If a person is given a new name altogether, the above table can be followed. Else the table earlier will also give good results. Slowly and steadily with more experience, you will understand how to change names. Also, doing your own research can reveal new patterns.
The idea here is to balance the numbers. I would like to explain it with an example. Say for example someone born on 6th June. He will be ruled by Psychic 6 and Taurus or again Number 6. Here we know that the person is ruled by Number 6 and has more qualities of Venus. Someone having strong Venus may lose self control and get addicted to alcohol and drugs. Name Number 1 ruled by Sun can give self control to the native and may strike a balance on the overall numbers. For example Anil Kapoor born on 24th November uses a Name Number 37 and has had a fairly successful life so far. It is not necessary that if the lucky number is 6, only 6 can be used as the name number. Someone having a psychic number of 9 should never use 9 as the name number. Number 9 is for Mars and makes the person aggressive, short tempered and accident prone. Using a Name Number 9 can make things worse. On the other hand, using a Name Number 6 can strike a balance among the numbers. From the module 1, I have been emphasizing on understanding the behavior of the planets. If the understanding of the behavior of planets is clear, we can come up with the best name number. If the psychic number and zodiac shows masculine numbers like 4 and 1, a feminine number like 6 shall be used. On the other hand, if the psychic number and zodiac shows more of feminine numbers like 2 and 8, strong and masculine numbers like 1 and 5 should be suggested.

Baby Name Numerology

For baby name numerology as well, the above concept needs to be used. However, we have more flexibility when it comes to fixing a numerological name for a new born baby. I would advise not to start the name with alphabets D, M, T, F and P while fixing the name of a new born baby. The reason being, these alphabets carry value of 4 or 8 which are for Rahu and Saturn. My experience and research says that alphabets S, A, R and K carry a lot of potency. There is something interesting to observe here. S is the 19th alphabet, Number 19 is 1 or the number of Sun and according to Chaldean theory S is 3, number of Jupiter. So S gets the vibration of both 1 and 3. A being the 1st alphabet has a lot of potency of its own; also it carries the value 1. Personally I have found alphabet R and K very powerful as well. If you look at the most successful celebrities in India, you will see that the names of 90% of them start with the alphabet S, A, R or K. Try it!
