****Sounds fascinating, Mel...although I can not translate exactly what you are saying (lack of knowledge on the topic at hand) I am intrigued and will look into graphology myself so I can learn more!

*****My family name, "Jordan", is the tenth letter, and I so appreciate when people refer to my entire surname as Jordan Scott even though I choose not to hyphenate. I found when I chose not to use "Jordan" at all in my name, I fell asleep to my true self, and wore a mask of who I thought I was supposed to be. Nowadays, when people refer to me as "Julie Scott" I actually cringe.

Maybe my subconscious mind knew the back part of the alphabet thing! :-)
