How Miguel sounds
The two beats of Miguel give it a natural, conversational flow. The last sound of Miguel glides, so the name closes with a soft, rolling note. Miguel has a light, airy sound with soft breathy consonants and bright vowels, which this scheme counts as air. The recent trend for Miguel in U.S. birth records points downward, which suits those who prefer something less common. In U.S. birth records Miguel has been given mostly to boys.
The Saju view
Miguel 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. In Saju, Miguel carries water. That makes it a natural choice for charts where water is the thinnest of the five elements. In the cycle where each element nourishes the next, water gives rise to wood, so Miguel earns some credit for charts missing wood. Charts crowded with water tend to look elsewhere, as the water sound of Miguel would tip the balance further.
