Is it possible to make an unsuitable name change using Chaldean numerology? The answer is definitely YES. Chaldean numerology is still not something one can fully master just by reading books. The three most common mistakes made either by individuals changing their names on their own or by numerologists proposing such changes are:
- Ignoring the Monthly Period Number
- Lack of understanding of the relationships between numbers
- Lack of in-depth analysis at the consonant level
My friend changed her name without considering her Period Number. Her Total Name Number (TNN) turned out to be a form of 15. However, her Period Numbers were 4 and 8. When the number 15 is combined with 4 or 8, the name justifiably earns the nickname “The Devil.” After this numerological change, her life encountered the following issues: poverty, divorce, and suffering.
Another acquaintance changed her name to 15 + 15, assuming that together they would form TNN 30, which is believed to bring harmony and happiness. However, her initials created the number 44, which on its own already disturbs the energy of 15. Since the name change, she has been plagued by unnecessary worries, mistrust in others, and various fears.
Let me share another example — a man who likely changed his name to escape family karma. His new name carried the vibration of the number 19. But his specific form of 19 lacked quality and, in combination with another number, resulted in conflict, misunderstanding, mental pressure, bursts of anger, obstacles, and even internal aggression. This man ended up working in a pizzeria for a while — an environment with extreme heat (Sun and 19!), which he couldn’t tolerate well.
When someone is lucky enough to choose a name — either by personal calculation or with the help of a skilled numerologist — that not only aligns on the surface but also holds up in deeper analysis, that person is a winner. Many such individuals report significant life turnarounds and even major successes to their numerologists. These testimonials are often shared publicly.
But what about those who aren’t so fortunate when changing their name? The first stage is often a denial — telling themselves everything is fine. Over time, this might shift to rationalization: “It’s not that bad; the struggles are just part of a temporary cleansing.” Years later, the person may become emotionally numb, no longer paying much attention to numerology, and not even feeling genuine anger toward the numerologist who misguided them. They usually don’t share negative experiences, and so the public remains unaware that numerology can also lead to unpleasant changes.
It’s worth noting that name changes don’t operate solely under known numerological rules and always carry a certain risk. Performing a thorough, favorable analysis of a new full name is extremely challenging. Some level of compromise is usually necessary. Especially when trying to remove an old Name Number 8, the deactivation process can be quite slow. In general, a transition period of energetic reactions and “cleansing” can occur during the shift.
Most people only opt for this step when they truly can’t resolve their problems in any other way. If you ever decide to change your name or surname, do not rely on just one person’s opinion! The new name or surname must feel pleasant to you — that’s the first condition. To avoid future issues or regret, it’s highly recommended to have the energy of the new name or surname evaluated before the change by at least five people who are sensitive to subtle name energies (good clairvoyants, shamans, healers, tarot readers, spiritual guides, etc.). Their feedback should all point in the same direction. If it doesn’t — it’s best to abandon the idea of changing your name.
