The classical reading
46 reduces to 1, the Sun's number. Inside it 4 is Rahu and 6 is Venus, with Sun behind the pair as the reduced digit. On the surface a 1 name behaves as any 1 does: leads, decides fast, and does badly under anyone else. Practitioners read it as a good total for a business name; it is read as 37 repeated. A name that reaches 46 by one or two edits is worth the change; Name Variants shows which respellings land on it.

Reading the compound and the digit together
- The compound is read before the digit is, and the digit is read as character rather than fate.
- Two names on the same digit differ by compound; 23 is not 41 and 18 is not 27.
- A compound is a planetary pairing: 19 is the Sun with Mars, 18 the Sun with Saturn in mutual enmity.
- 13, 14, 16 and 19 are the karmic totals; they are read unreduced.
- The nearest good compound beats the ideal one: a one-letter edit to 37 is worth more than a rebrand to 23, because the goodwill of the old name is kept.
