Although most names that begin with the red-blooded, racy letter R tend to suggest individuals with cheekily irrepressible spirits, the sober aspects of the letter G tend to modulate this impudence and imbues these names with a touch of grace. For the G is the icon for all things good, glorious, gentle, genuine and genial, and it’s hardly surprising to find, that when combined with the letter R, words take on a decidedly princely air: regal, rightly, reign, regalia, regime, rugged, regulate, and regimented. This effect is somewhat subdued in the case of the RGN names (Regan, Reagan, and Reginald) since the letter N is the essence of all things negative (no, never, not, nyet, nada, nothing, null, none) and gives these names their aspect of pessimism and self-doubt.
These people have well-deserved reputations for their strong sense of moral direction… and a superior attitude to boot. But RGs also have an unusual streak of humor that belies their aloofness and there’s a touch of naiveté that makes them easy marks for conspiracy theories and practical jokes. It’s not that they’re dull-witted by any means; in fact, it’s thanks to their extraordinary street-smarts that they make the kind of money they do. Just don’t tease the RGs about their gullibility. It is often said that RGs can laugh at anything except themselves.
Life is lived moment-to-moment with these individuals and it shows in their daily routine—or lack thereof. For RGs perform poorly in structured environments, and although they’ll willing to bite their tongues when they sense sufficient financial rewards, they’re far more interested in jobs that stimulate their minds than they are in jobs with high status. If RGs become doctors, you know they’re not doing it for the money. However, like most R-named people, they’re not the types to let hard work to keep them from having healthy social lives, and to cope with daily frustrations, they must find ways to blow them off – either in the gym or with a good stiff drink. Otherwise, as RGs well know, life’s little problems can build up and threaten the balance of their finely tuned lives.
Having a partner is essential to the RGs’ well being,but they place less emphasis on traditional romantic gestures than they do the practical issues of marriage. Since few things make an RG as uncomfortable as being emotionally vulnerable, they like to keep their spouses slightly off-balance with regards to their inner lives. But even though they may hide behind sarcasm or the occasional temper-tantrum, the RGs’ motives are pretty transparent to those who know them well. RGs can only relax and enjoy the ride once they’ve accepted the fact that their mates love them for better and worse.
