The letter L initializes the most important things in the universe: life, love, laughter, liberty, and learning. And when it occurs in words initialized by the mysterious letter W, creates a sound that evokes a howling wolf: wild, wily, wooly and even a little bit woeful. Perhaps this is why some men (Willy, Wally and Willie) elect to add the high-pitched Y or IE and advertise their names as more approachable and friendly. The name Willie Loman -- the hapless hero of Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman -- was carefully chosen to make this point. It’s also noteworthy that the only female name in this group (Wilfred) uses the friendly and feminine letter F to distance itself from its wild counterparts. But all WL people are characterized by their determination to make their marks in life and share a common belief that tomorrow is going to be a better day.
WLs tend to be gracious and introspective types, who only feel at peace when there’s balance between their careers and relationships. And because there’s nothing WLs wouldn’t do for their loved ones -- and because it’s a such an effort to say "no" -- many end up giving more than they get. But this a trait that WLs hardly consider to be a weakness; their emotionally generous attitudes win them many friends and creates a support system for when they are in need of help. (It’s also great for attracting the opposite sex.)
With their penchant for solving problems, many WLs are attracted to the computer, engineering, and legal fields. Even if your WL friend doesn’t have any outstanding talents, he or she will probably have a well-rounded skillset that comes in handy in their chosen career. In fact, the job market, is like a giant candy store to WLs who oftenfind themselves in the enviable position of having to select between many promising offers. WLs are opportunists when it comes to earning money; and even when they’ve committed themselves to a particular career, won’t feel duty-bound to stay if another job has the potential of being more lucrative.
If WLs are lucky in love, it might have something to do with the peculiar energy they radiate when around the opposite sex. Some might call it mojo, but it might also be that WLs play so damn hard to get. Even when marriage becomes inevitable, they’ll enter into it with a certain amount of trepidation. But once they’ve overcome the initial discomfort of their new environment, they’ll rise to the challenge and become the best mates in the entire world (or at least, that’s what they’ll have you believe). By the time they’re in their thirties most are comfortably ensconced in permanent and gratifying relationships with (what they’ll also tell you) their single life a distant dream
