Question:
I was wondering about the japanese numerology of their names. Apparently parents traditionally are very cautious about what to name their baby because of belief that the number of strokes in the kanji of the name can affect his/her life. I cant seem to find much info on it online and was wondering if there were any sites or books that anyone knows of w/ more info. Supposedly they used to ask monks/priests to help choose a good name but i dont have that sort of access lol
Or an explanation of how this works on here would be good too. Im really interested in this kanji numerology topic. Examples of what are believed to be good or bad numbers and stuff. Thanks in advance.
Answer:
Not many parents believe in that kind of thing. It's like fortune telling. Not everyone believes in fortune telling.
In fact, there are many websites explaining about it. But most of them are in Japanese. I can't find an English site. This is Wikipedia.
