Archiveschanging my name
I'm wondering if anyone in this world of etymology can give me any feedback on the Kabalarians. I'm a Canadian, have lived with a name that just feels wrong. I go by so many variations at different times and places in my life. I'm steps away from giving the Kabalarians my $180 for a "balanced" name (surname and proper), but discovered some troubling history about the group. No one's perfect, and every group has it's bad apples, but most troubling was a blogger called Brian recounting his unhappy childhood while his family was deeply involved with the Kabalarians in Vancouver. Any personal experiences or stories to tell?

Philosophies like that aren't particularly my thing, but of course you're free to believe what you like. I'd be highly suspicious of anyone charging $180 to come up with a new name for you. You know yourself better than anyone else, so why not search for a new name yourself? Sites like this are great for searching as you can find names with a meaning to suit your personality.

This isn't the correct place for an enquiry about the history and legitimacy of the Kabalarians.
From a linguistic standpoint, we can say that the information they provide for your $180 has no basis in fact. Names do not influence personality, fate, luck or anything else.
