Determine Product Names Using Numerology
Use numerology to help determine a good product name. Or a good name for a service.
Products, services, books, buildings — everything created by people — all generally end up being named. The reason to utilize numerology to help determine their names is because every name has a number associated with it.
The numerology number associated with the name represents energies that resonate with certain ideas. When energies the number represents are consistent with the product's purpose, then from a numerological point of view it is a good name.
As an example, the number 1's sense of self-reliance and exploration would indicate a good brand name number for camping gear. Contrarily, the number 2's sense of relationships and diplomacy would indicate a number irrelevant to a camping gear brand.
As another example, the number 3's sense of creativity and social ease would indicate a good number for the name of a party supplies store. Contrarily, the number 4's sense of responsibility and pragmatism would indicate a name number incompatible with a party supplies store.

How to Calculate a Product Name Number
The product name number calculations result in a single-digit number.
The single-digit number is obtained by adding together the values of all the letters of the name. Then reducing that number to a single-digit (which I'll describe how to do).
Each letter has a numerical value that's used in the calculations:
Values | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Letters | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I |
J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | |
S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z |

To demonstrate how it works, let's use the fictitious "Daiy Jane's Chocolate Passion" name for a box of candy.
Using the chart of letter values and adding together each letter value of the product name results in the number 101. Here's what the numbers look like.
4197 1155 1 386363125 7111965 = 101 Daiy Jane's Chocolate Passion
Because the total is multi-digit number, the number is reduced to a single digit. To reduce a number to a single digit, add together the digits that compose the multi-digit number. If the result is another multi-digit number, keep doing the exercise until the result is a single-digit number (a number less than 10).
Here's how the number 101 is reduced.
1+0+1 = 2
The number 101 reduced to a single digit results in the number 2. Therefore, the product name number of Daiy Jane's Chocolate Passion is the number 2.
Assuming the chocolates are marketed as something to share with a partner, the product name number 2 works especially well.
On the other hand, if the chocolates were marketed as something to share with a group; such as at birthday parties, reunions, card games, or other get-togethers; then a product name number 3 would work better.
A product name number 3 can be obtained by adding the letter "s" to the name (the letter "s" has a letter value 1):
4197 1155 1 386363125 71119651 = 102 Daiy Jane's Chocolate Passions Then: 1+0+2 = 3
You can do something similar to determine a satisfactory product name number — add or remove letters from the product name until the result is the number you're looking for. Or try various completely different names until a satisfactory product name number is obtained.
The Product Name Tool is an online calculator that can be used to automatically calculate the product name number for you. It will accept one or more names and respond with the name number of each.
A product name number that resonates with the purpose of the product is a good name according to numerology. The name must, of course, also be acceptable to buyers or users of the product for it to be embraced by the people it's intended for.
