Libra is a female name in the United States, reaching peak popularity in the 1970s. There are approximately 200 people named Libra in the US today.
The name Libra's root letters are LB.
The combination of the letters L and B produces an interesting meld of conflicting forces. The letter Listhe herald of love, learning, liberty, laughter and life, and when combined with the flagship letter of brashness, belligerence and boldness, it makes for names that are alternatively laid back and conservatively dominant. We find these oscillating good/bad effects in the word groups: lamb/lambast, celebrate/celibate, clubby/club, pliable/playboy, and lifeblood/bloodbath. So although these are people whose outer deportment is gentle and spiritually uplifting, we cannot ignore the fact that they’re also unyielding and uncompromising.
The LB personality is one to take charge in all aspects of her productive life. It’s worth noting that her style of leadership isn’t derived from aggression or coercion, it’s that other people quickly cotton onto the fact that she is an Alpha females and trust that she will use their authority in good faith. Whether her leadership skills are expressed in the workplace or in her relationships, the LB is quite comfortable with her dominant role and will rarely abuse her influence. When the LB finds her leadership position challenged, she isn’t going to tackle the interloper in a face-to-face confrontation. Secure in the knowledge that time will prove her to be a superior leader; she will coolly keep her distance and allow nature to take its course.
Because of her open acceptance of people from all walks of life, it’s hard to land on an LB’s list of undesirables. Whether she’s hosting a casual picnic or attending a high-visibility fundraising event, her primary focus will be the feelings of the people around her. This is the kind of girl you can dress up or down without affecting her fundamentally unpretentious attitude.
Libras in their personal lives are typically stoic and conservative -- particularly when it comes to their families. There’s very little that can distract them from wholehearted intimate commitments and they fully accept that married life is going to have its ups and downs. They have so much confidence in the choices they make that they don’t feel obliged to micromanage every little crisis that all families experience. But don’t misinterpret the LB’s non-involvement as a sign of disinterest; behind her implacable visage lies a fiercely concerned matriarch who puts family unity above all else.
