How Gunner sounds
Two syllables make Gunner compact enough for everyday use but long enough to carry some melody. A vowel ends Gunner, which keeps its final beat soft and sung rather than clipped. Its soft, humming consonants make Gunner sound like water to the ear. Gunner is neither trendy nor rare in U.S. birth records, which makes it a settled, comfortable choice. In U.S. birth records Gunner has been given mostly to boys.
The Saju view
In the pronunciation-element system the opening sound of Gunner belongs to wood, since it is made at the back of the throat. In Saju, Gunner carries wood. That makes it a natural choice for charts where wood is the thinnest of the five elements. Gunner supports fire from behind: its wood sound is the traditional source of that element. If wood is already strong in a chart, Gunner ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.

The astrology view
Gunner ranks highest in charts led by water, which means the signs Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. Charts led by Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn come next. For fire and air signs, the water sound of Gunner pulls the other way, and the ranking reflects that.
