How Carolina sounds

The many beats of Carolina give it a musical, almost song-like cadence. With a vowel at the end, Carolina has an open, friendly finish. For the ear, Carolina is soft, round and flowing, which the scheme counts as a water sound. In U.S. birth records Carolina keeps a calm, constant presence, familiar without being everywhere. U.S. birth records list Carolina overwhelmingly for girls.

The Saju view

The opening of Carolina falls in the wood group of the sound-element table, because it is a back-of-the-throat sound. Carolina is a fire name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack fire. Because fire feeds earth in the cycle of generation, Carolina can also help a chart that is short on earth, though less directly. A chart that already holds plenty of fire is better served by another name, since Carolina would add to it.

The astrology view
