Because the letter N is the definitive symbol of negative influence (no, not, never, nix, nada, naught, nein, nyet, and nowhere), it tends to convey an air of pessimism and self-doubt in many of the words it appears. And even though names that begin with the idealistic and intellectual letter I almost always depict an individual with a high level of self-worth and intelligence, its conjunction with the N still tends to describe the downbeat motifs found in the words: inane, inept, inferno, infidel, inmate, insipid, and infirm.
Despite the cynical implications of the IN names, these are very bright people whose inner reserves help them achieve balance in their active lifestyles. And while inwardly they might be warmly passionate, you won’t encounter this side until you’ve gotten to know them fairly well: these are natural introverts who require some one-on-one work before they’re going to lower their walls. And even though IN people prefer being the approachee – rather than the approacher, it’s unlikely that they will ever refuse a person in need. They recognize – at least intellectually – that everyone needs a hand now and then.
Like most people whose names begin with the letter I, the INs tend to view the universe through a prism of intellectualism rather than relating to it emotionally. This is why such a high percentage of them wind up in the medical fields as scientists or researches. Even when they make their mark as artists (I names are on the top of the list when it comes to this), they tend to approach their work somewhat clinically -- rather than being driven by their feelings. And because the IN’s introspective nature often turns inward for answers to life’s many questions, they are without equal as psychologists and counselors.
Making friends with an IN may take some effort, but it will usually prove to be worth the exertion. They are great listeners – if not the most forthcoming talkers – and will quietly listen to you for hours while you reveal your deepest secrets. And don’t ever worry that your privacy isn’t going to be safe; INs have deep contempt for gossip and meddling.
Partnering an IN will be an equally rewarding experience, unless you especially need excitement in your life. For the price of being with these steady, internally controlled creatures, is having to cater to their need for predictability and routine. If you can deal with the occasional explosion of petulance, you’re going to be blessed with one of the most steadfastly supportive mates on the planet.
