How Fernando sounds
Fernando stretches over three syllables, which adds warmth and a sense of occasion. Fernando ends on an open vowel, which leaves the sound soft and open at the close. A water sound runs through Fernando: smooth, gentle and unhurried. Recent U.S. birth records show Fernando used less often than before, so it stands out a little today. In U.S. birth records Fernando has been given mostly to boys.
The Saju view
Fernando starts on M, B, P, F or V, a sound that Korean name reading would place in the water group and that this scheme carries over to English. The sound of Fernando belongs to fire, the element of warmth and visibility. A chart short on fire is the one that gains most from such a name. A chart lacking earth can lean on the fire in Fernando, since fire is the parent of earth in Saju. Charts crowded with fire tend to look elsewhere, as the fire sound of Fernando would tip the balance further.

The astrology view
