Lyra Greenleaf has just left Hobbiton.
Silmaril

I was wondering what sort of person marries their brother, so I typed in Nienna. It said:
Quote:
Your first name of Nienna has given you a responsible, expressive, inspirational, and friendly personality.
Inspirational, hey? thats not good!

Quote:
Self-confidence has made it easy for you to meet people and you are well-liked for your spontaneous, happy ways.
Happy? really?

Quote:
this name is not altogether constructive; it creates a somewhat scattering influence which makes it difficult for you to finish what you start.
uh-oh, they told me that too...(which is completely untrue)

Quote:
This name brings disappointments and emotional involvements
...thats more like it!#

Quote:
While the first name of Nienna has some constructive qualities, it has characteristics that undermine your long-term happiness and success in life.
oh no, it said that for me as well...HELP!!!

this whole stupid system only got one thing right about me, it said that things whir around in my head constantly and I cant sleep (thats paraphrasing a bit!)...everything else is rubbish!
I mean, come on- what about being given another name if you're adopted, or nicknames, or a doublebarrelled name...?


but never mind- Legolas:
Quote:
Your first name of Legolas has given you the vision and foresight to be able to organize others and to hold positions of responsibilities with poise and self-confidence. This name creates an optimistic outlook on life and favourable conditions in your personal affairs. You have the ability to express your thoughts and ideas, and you are friendly, likeable, and generous. You enjoy fun, laughter and congenial association. This name also gives you an appreciation of art, music, drama, or any of the many forms of expression in the arts. Since you are quick and fluent in your expression, you have to guard against boastfulness or dominating a situation.
A lot of that is pretty good, (I especially like 'vision' and 'foresight'!) but then it ruins it:
Quote:
You are likely a big eater, requiring heavy foods to satisfy your appetite. Overeating can affect the bloodstream, causing it to become overheated. In turn, skin problems could result. There could also be weaknesses in the generative organs.
