Numerology gives every letter a value, A is one and B is two through to I, then J starts again at one, and adds them up. Your full name at birth becomes three numbers: the expression number from every letter, which is what you are here to do; the soul urge from the vowels, which is what you quietly want; and the personality number from the consonants, which is what people see first. It is an old system, it is a little bit playful, and it is surprisingly good at starting a useful conversation with yourself.
Type the name you were given at birth, all of it, and the calculator works out the three numbers in your browser. Master numbers, 11, 22 and 33, are kept whole. You get a warm reading of each, one small step, and the card that sits with your expression number.

What to do with it
Use the name on your birth certificate for the reading, then try the name you actually go by and notice what changed. A person who shortened their name often shortened something else too, and the difference between the two sets of numbers is the most interesting part of the tool.
Read the three together rather than picking a favorite. The gap between what you want and what people see is where most of the friction in a life lives, and naming it is half the work. Then take the one step, today.
Questions people ask
What is the difference between expression, soul urge and personality numbers?
The expression number uses every letter of your full name and describes what you are here to do and how you naturally do it. The soul urge uses only the vowels and speaks for what you want underneath. The personality number uses the consonants and describes the first impression you make. Together they are a small portrait rather than a verdict.
Which name should I use in a name numerology calculator?
Start with the full name you were given at birth, first, middle and last, because that is the version the tradition reads. Then, if you like, try the name you use now. A married name, a nickname or a chosen name gives a second reading, and comparing the two is often where the insight sits.
Is my name stored anywhere?
No. The letters are added up in your own browser, and the name is not sent to us, not stored, and not written into the link if you share your result. You could switch off your connection after the page loads and the calculator would still work.
