🔢 A system separate from the classical texts (numerology)
The short answer: Namank is the total of the numbers of the English letters of your name. Each letter gets a number from the Chaldean table. For RAHUL: R2 + A1 + H5 + U6 + L3 = 17, then 1 + 7 = 8, so Namank 8. The two-digit total like 17 is also read. There is no need to change your name. See your Namank above, then read below.

A Worked Example
Take the name RAHUL. From the table: R = 2, A = 1, H = 5, U = 6, L = 3.
Adding: 2 + 1 + 5 + 6 + 3 = 17. Then 1 + 7 = 8. So the total is 17 and the Namank 8.
If the name has more than one word, find the number of each word separately and then add. Source: Cheiro's Book of Numbers, chapter XII Take the name you use daily and by which people know you. Source: Cheiro's Book of Numbers, chapter XII
What The Two-Digit Total Says
According to the book a single digit (1 to 9) shows the personality as it appears, while a total from 10 to 52 shows hidden strength and the stream of fortune. Source: Cheiro's Book of Numbers, chapter XII Below is the usual meaning of some totals:

Name Number And Birth Number
According to Cheiro, if the name number and birth number are the same or of the same group, the hope of harmony and success is greater. Source: Cheiro's Book of Numbers, chapter XIV If they do not match, he advised adding a letter to the name to make a match. Source: Cheiro's Book of Numbers, chapter XIV
Our view is different. There is no need to change the spelling of your name only for a number. The name is your identity and is the same in all papers. See your Mulank and just understand what the two share.

| Different Namank and Mulank is bad | No. The book calls a match good, but does not call a difference bad. |
| Every name gives one number only | No. Changing the spelling changes the number. So take the spelling you use daily. |
| Name number tells the Kundli result | No. A Kundli is made from birth time and place. Namank is a separate and light tilt. |
