The Saju view
The first sound is the heaviest in the pronunciation-element system, and for Theo it is metal, made against the teeth. The sound of Theo belongs to metal, the element of focus and refinement. A chart short on metal is the one that gains most from such a name. A chart lacking water can lean on the metal in Theo, since metal is the parent of water in Saju. A chart that already holds plenty of metal is better served by another name, since Theo would add to it.
