The Chaldean letter chart this calculator uses

|---|---|
| 1 | A, I, J, Q, Y |
| 2 | B, K, R |
| 3 | C, G, L, S |
| 4 | D, M, T |
| 5 | E, H, N, X |
| 6 | U, V, W |
| 7 | O, Z |
| 8 | F, P |
No letter is given 9 in the Chaldean system, so a chart that gives a letter 9 is the Pythagorean one and will give a different answer. Read Chaldean vs Pythagorean for the difference, and the name correction guide for what to do when a name does not fit.
Name number questions
Which name should I calculate?
+−
The name you use and sign with every day, written the way you write it. Spelling matters, because each letter has its own value.
What is a compound number?
+−
The total of all the letter values before reducing to one digit. Ramesh Kumar is 35, which reduces to 8.
Why do other calculators give a different number?
+−
Most use the Pythagorean chart, where letters run A to I as 1 to 9. This calculator uses the Chaldean chart, which most Indian name correction work follows.
What if my name number does not match my date of birth?
+−
Tradition usually suggests a small spelling change, such as adding one letter, that keeps the pronunciation the same. The free Name Check shows spellings that would match.
