If I use my given first name, I get 3.9C

If I use my nickname, I get 4.9C

If I use my childhood nickname, I get 7.5C

If I use my middle name, I get 8.4C and there are only 3 names more conservative.

I guess I was destined to be conservative. :thumbs2:

Hm. Tried my middle name with less lustrous results. A 4.3C rating; 158 names are more conservative; and people with that name are less likely to contribute to a political campaign than the average citizen.

The average Republican is supposedly 6.0C and the average Democrat 5.8L.

Absolutely useless and unscientific stuff, but weirdly entertaining.

Some past Presidents:
  • Barrack: "Sorry, we couldn't find data for that name, try another one." :smilelol5:
  • George: 4.1C
  • Bill: 5.2C
  • Ronald: 4.3C
  • Jimmy: 7.6C (obviously an anomaly; perhaps a typo like Beruity's)
  • Gerald: 3.9C
  • Richard: 3.4C
  • Lyndon: 3.3C
  • John: 3.7C
  • Dwight: 4.7C
  • Harry: 4.4C
  • Franklin: 3.1C
  • Herbert: 2.7C
  • Calvin: 3.8C
  • Warren: 4.7C
  • Woodrow: 4.8C
I'll stop there, circa WWI.

Should we tell the Democrats that, at least in the last 100 years, there has never been a President with a first name that registered into the Liberal side of this scale?

Oh, and:
  • Hillary: 7.5L
  • Bernie: 3.1C
Meaningless, but sorta fun.

Both my first name and my using name(middle) are conservative. Unsurprisingly my First name is more conservative.

Well, that was a crock, at least for me.
3.2C for my first name.
3.1L for jed.
I should have blown out the right side of my computer screen and landed near the my wood stove.
