Witch Names, Craft Names, Heartnames; I've heard all of these terms used.
Do you use such a magickal name, and if so, do you have any specific beliefs or practices in regards to your chosen name?
For me, Sollomyn is such a name; I wanted to choose one that fit my Birth Number precisely.
To find your Birth Number, you simply add up all of the digits of your birthday; I'll use mine as an example, January 19th, 1995, (born some time during 8:00 PM - 8:40 PM, but that's not important to this method): 1 + 1 + 9 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 5 = 35. Then, you take the sum and add the two digits together: 3 + 5 = 8. So EIGHT would be my Birth Number, and my destiny would follow the 35/8 Life Path. I learned about this in Dan Millman's book entitled "The Life You Were Born to Live". I learned about this next part in Raymond Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft; a chart to determine the numerological value of each letter in the English alphabet:
-------------------
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
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
-------------------
S = 1
O = 6
L = 3
L = 3
O = 6
M = 4
Y = 7
+ N = 5
35/8
I chose the name Sollomyn also because the Biblical Solomon was a wise magician, and I am considered to be wise beyond my years by many, and the art of theatrical legerdemain is a hobby I have a deep affinity for; there's nothing quite like making people smile by providing a momentary bubble of pure and utter disbelief and amazement within their hearts; makes me feel good.![Embarrassment](http://www.paganforum.com/core/images/smilies/redface.png)
