Oleg: name numerology
Enter a name and a date of birth — the same engine that produced this page does the arithmetic.
Work out your own name
The same name, counted four different ways — and only the fourth touches your date.
All four arrive as one document. Each chapter says first what that number describes for anybody, and only then reads the one your letters produced; the same file comes to your email as a PDF made for printing.
This page counts one spelling of one name. The document says what that costs the method — spell the name another way and the numbers move with it — and it says so in the first chapter, not in a footnote at the end.

The number costs nothing and asks for no address. The written reading is free as well — it asks for an email, because that is where the document is sent.
The calculation is free and needs no account. For entertainment and self-development only — not advice.
Oleg is the older Latin spelling of a name Ukrainian passports now write as Oleh, and the two do not count alike. Oleg totals 21 for an Expression of 3, a Personality of 1 and a Soul Urge of 7.

Oleg, letter by letter
Each letter carries its value from this language’s table. They add to 21, which reduces to an Expression number of 3.
| Letter | Value |
|---|---|
| o | 6 |
| l | 3 |
| e | 5 |
| g | 7 |
| Total | 21 |
Helgi, Oleg and Oleh
The name is Norse in origin — Helgi, holy or blessed — and it entered the chronicles of Rus early, alongside Helga, which became Olga. English met it through Russian sources, which is why Oleg is the familiar Latin spelling, while Ukrainian transliteration renders the same name as Oleh. That swapped letter is not cosmetic: H is worth 8 where G is 7, so Oleh totals 22 and takes an Expression of 4, though its Soul Urge stays at 7 because the vowels never changed.
Two vowels that shift between tables
Four letters give 21 and an Expression of 3. G is heaviest at 7, and with L at 3 the consonants make 10, so the Personality is 1. The vowels are where it gets unusual: O counts 6 in the main table but 4 in the soul cipher, and E counts 5 there but 3 here, so both change weight. A is the only ordinary vowel the two tables agree on, and Oleg has no A — which is why its Soul Urge cannot be read off the breakdown printed above it.
Frequently asked
Are Oleg and Oleh the same name?
Yes, and they are not the same spelling. Ukrainian transliteration writes H for the final letter, which moves the total and the Expression while leaving the Soul Urge alone.
Does Olga share these numbers?
Only the Personality. Olga also has L and G for its consonants, so that number is 1 as well, but its vowels are O and A and the rest of the arithmetic parts ways.
Why is the Soul Urge higher than the Expression?
Because the two come from different tables. The vowel cipher happens to score O and E at 4 and 3, while the full spelling reduces from 21 down to 3.
