About the Name Octave

The name Octave's root letters are OV.

The emotional letter O is full of surprises, and when teamed up with the vibrantly voluptuous, vivacious and virile letter V, exudes an unmistakable air of excitement and anticipation. We find these boldly provocative attributes in the words: jovial, groovy, lovable, novelty, and provocateur. So if you detect a veneer of velvety good manners from the OV, be aware that it’s probably a ploy to distract you from their charismatic and cheeky true selves. These are bright individuals who have fetishes for challenging the status quo.

Utterly charming and endlessly witty, these personalities comprise an unexpected combination of subtlety and flamboyance that is hard to beat for sheer animal magnetism. And while they don’t necessarily seek the limelight, they’re certainly willing to make the most out of any publicity that may come their way. It’s quite common for the Octaves’ devil-may-care attitude to annoy family and friends who consider them to be somewhat reckless in their life decisions. But even though Octaves may sense the discomfort caused by their careening lifestyles, it certainly isn’t going to deter them from the exhilaration of making waves.

In terms of their careers, Octaves are quite at home being the center of attention and manage well with the pressures that come from being in the limelight. This explains why Octaves make such great company spokespeople and arbitrators in petty disputes. By carefully picking their battles and keeping a lid on their negative emotions when tensions are running high, Octaves prove themselves to be formidable negotiators.

But it’s in their home lives that the OV personalities come into their own, and prospective partners can expect an exhilarating ride. Sexually, Octaves are quite adventurous -- willing to try anything at least twice -- and their lovers will find themselves the happy recipients of all manner of experimentation lifted from the pages of Cosmopolitan or Playboy.

As parents, Octaves remember their own childhood struggles to express themselves freely, so their children are given plenty of leeway and will appreciate their parents’ calm patience. These are parents who will even tolerate overt disobedience if it means giving their children free rein to their imaginations -- as long as the kids don’t pinch the Octaves’ personal freedom too tightly.
