is this me?

I ran across one of those sites that tells you what your name means. Here's what mine said:

Although the name Wade creates the urge to be reliable and responsible, we emphasize that it can cause a superior, interfering expression whose favorite expression is "I know" when not combined with a balanced last name. This name, when not combined with a balanced last name, can also frustrate happiness, contentment, and success, as well as cause health weaknesses through worry and mental tension.
Your name of Wade gives you a clever mind, good business judgment, a sense of responsibility, and an appreciation of the finer things of life. You are serious-minded and not inclined to make light of things even in little ways, and in your younger years you had more mature interests than others your age. Home and family mean a great deal to you and it is natural that you should desire the security of a peaceful, settled home environment where you can enjoy the companionship of family and friends. Whatever you set out to accomplish you do your very best to complete in accordance with what you consider to be right.

OK, let's break this thing down:

Although the name Wade creates the urge to be reliable and responsible, we emphasize that it can cause a superior, interfering expression whose favorite expression is "I know" when not combined with a balanced last name. Is this saying I think I'm a know-it-all? Hmmm....

Your name of Wade gives you a clever mind, good business judgment, a sense of responsibility, and an appreciation of the finer things of life. "Clever" must be another way of saying that I'm a smart alec; good business judgment and responsible, I'll agree with; I do appreciate the finer things in life, but I can rarely afford them. Let's continue....


You are serious-minded and not inclined to make light of things even in little ways, and in your younger years you had more mature interests than others your age. The first part of this one caused me to "make light" of this part of my name definition; I can find humor in the cracks and crevices of situations where most people can't (also known as "making fun"). Sometimes I'll say something in jest in Susie's presence, and I'll get a look from her that says "you're a sick, morbid individual." The second part, however, was pretty accurate. I always hung out with older kids in junior high and high school growing up.

Home and family mean a great deal to you and it is natural that you should desire the security of a peaceful, settled home environment where you can enjoy the companionship of family and friends. Dead-on accurate. I do enjoy a peaceful environment at home. Looking back on a fight scene between Sara and Meg, I can find humor; however, I don't think it's too funny when it's "in the moment". I prefer security as opposed to chaos, so shoot me.

Whatever you set out to accomplish you do your very best to complete in accordance with what you consider to be right. This is a big part of my personality. If you're going to do something, do it right. Otherwise, why do it at all?

You can try your name out and see how closely it resembles your personality at http://www.kabalarians.com/Index.cfm. I did one for all my girls, and I'll share it with them tonight. Should be alot of fun.....
