About the Name Florence

The showy FL letter combination is the undisputed icon for all things flashy, and flamboyant. We see its gaudy effects in words like flighty, flirtatious, flippant, fluid, flubber, flounce, and flaunt. In a similar way, FL people aren’t exactly known for having their feet planted on the ground; they’re much more comfortable with their own rose-colored version of reality. So don’t bother consulting a FL for insightful advice: it’s better to sit back and let the positive energies of these engaging creatures flow over you. And don’t try using logic to ‘set them straight’ either, for FLs really have no intention of coming down to earth. Strong-willed and idealistic to their core, they approach life with childlike enthusiasm and innocent faith.

But for all their enthusiasm and apparent naiveté, FL people have two distinct sides: a sympathetic side -- that makes them strong and loyal friends -- and a happy-go-lucky aspect that propels them into uncharted tangents. These competing forces sometimes give them a reputation for being fair-weather friends -- and while it’s true that their moods change like the tide and can leave a few friends stranded -- there’s simply no malice anywhere in the FLs’ hearts. It’s just a symptom of the theirinability sail a straight course in a world that offers so many temptations.

The FLs’ professional lives are likewise interesting and varied, and they can flit from job to job with relative ease without feeling the need to settle down. While this quirk may cost them financial security in the long term, FLs are so versatile that they can find a job at the drop of a hat. It’s not unusual to find FLs making their living in exotic locations and enjoying their fortuitous encounters with chance and change.

Love comes to the FL often, but fleetingly. These fun-loving characters attract suitors like moths to a flambé, but are upfront about their reluctance to be tied down. Sociable as they are, they enjoy being in love (and are very physical in expressing it), but this doesn’t mean they’re in it for better or worse. If you want to keep your FL lover interested, the key is to maintain a high level of spontaneity in your relationship. Once you allow the gloss to wear off, your FL will flounce off in search of the next big quest.

It’s a non-negotiable requirement that the FLs’ partners must be their best friends, and permanent bonding is only possible when mates share the FLs’ addiction for exploration.
