Daniel, letter by letter
Each letter carries its value from this language’s table. They add to 27, which reduces to an Expression number of 9.
| Letter | Value |
|---|---|
| d | 4 |
| a | 1 |
| n | 5 |
| i | 9 |
| e | 5 |
| l | 3 |
| Total | 27 |
The breakdown above uses this language’s letter table. The Soul Urge is built from a separate vowel cipher, so adding up the values in this list will not reproduce it.
A prophet’s name in English
Daniel is Hebrew Daniyyel, God is my judge, the name of the prophet whose book sits in the Hebrew Bible. English has kept the full spelling stable since the Middle Ages while producing Dan, Danny and Dane alongside it. Each of those is its own string of letters. The Welsh Deiniol and the Cyrillic Даниил share the origin and, in this method, nothing else.
An even split, and one heavy letter
The six letters total 27, which reduces to an Expression of 9. I is the heaviest at 9 and by itself accounts for a third of the sum. The consonants D, N and L are modest — 4, 5 and 3 — and add to 12 for a Personality of 3. The vowels A, I and E go through the soul cipher, where I is 6 rather than 9, giving 1 + 6 + 3 and a Soul Urge of 1. The same letter therefore behaves differently in two of the three numbers on this page.

Does Dan give the same numbers as Daniel?
No. Three letters against six is a different sum, and Dan has only one vowel where Daniel has three.
Why is the Soul Urge the lowest number here?
Because the vowel cipher assigns smaller values than the main table does. The vowels total 10 in it, which reduces to 1.
Is Danielle calculated the same way?
No. Danielle has two extra letters and a doubled L, so both the consonant sum and the total move well away from Daniel.
