Oh, that is a hoot. She's a "nameologist" who does "name therapy"? To quote:

Consider these examples of a potential ill fit:
  • An emotionally reactive, unassertive procrastinator using "Mike" instead of the much stronger option, "Michael."
  • The child struggling in school with hyperactivity and a lack of focus using "Kevin," rather than the more grounded spelling of "Kevan."
  • The woman passed over for promotion after promotion when using "Liz" as a first name, instead of the power options found in "Eliza" or "Beth."
  • The teenager dealing with seemingly insurmountable substance abuse problems and depression as "Carolyn" when "Carolynne" would encourage more expression and confidence.
ETA: Not that I should rag on her site too much. She gave my name an "A" for charm and sex appeal.
