What's in a name?

What’s in a name?  After seeing Rxbambi’s post this morning, I thought I’d look up my name too.  Fun.
Using the name I’ve had for 21 years, my stats are:

31% of the letters are vowels. Of one million first and last names we looked at, 74.0% have a higher vowel make-up. This means you are modestly envoweled.
In ASCII binary it is... 01000010 01100001 01110010 01100010 01100001 01110010 01100001 00100000 01001101 01100011 01000011 01110010 01100001 01100011 01101011 01100101 01101110

My personal power animal is the Kunekune Pig
This beautiful creature lives in New Zealand.  According to Wikipedia it is a small breed of domestic pig.  They are friendly and are often kept as pets.  The name means “fat and round”.  I’m not sure how I’m taking this!
My 'Numerology' number is 6. If it wasn't bulls**t, it would mean that I’m responsible, careful, and compassionate. A giver, I am there to support and care for the most vulnerable.  That must mean the homeless dogs I’m drawn to taking in!
The site guesstimates there are 229 Americans who go by my name.

My first name, Barbara, has a Greek origin and it means “foreigner or stranger”.


Using my maiden name, I’m well envoweled and there are over two thousand Americans with that name!  The power animal is the Chinstrap Penguin.
It’s a bit more attractive than the poor Kunekune pig.

Your 'Numerology' number is 3. If it wasn't bulls**t, it would mean that you are enthusiastic, creative, optimistic, and fun-loving. You seek self-expression through words or the arts, and enjoy learning through life experiences.

ooohhh eerily describing someone OTHER THAN ME!!! hahahahahhaaaa
