Calculate your Name number

I dont know why…
I dont know for what but its funny :D

A      B        C        D        E        F        G        H        I

How it works
111381=Sascha 4938153=Michael 73592359=Guertler
1+1+1+3+8+1 4+9+3+8+1+5+3 7+3+5+9+2+3+5+9
        1+5                          3+3                          4+3
          6              +              6                +            7
                                        1+9
                                        1+0
                                          1

Huh?

Here's what I deduced:

Each letter is assigned a number from 1-9\. This repeats, so A=1, B=2, C=3, …, until J is reached, which loops back to 1, K=2, etc.. Alternatively, use ((x - 1) mod 9) + 1, where x is the xth letter of the alphabet.

Concatenate all the numbers, and then take the digital root of the result. In this, the OP seems to take the digital root of each number, and then add them up.

I did another example using the OP's name, "Mortal Angels".

First I use the OP's method, and then I use my simplified method.

Mortal = 4 (M) + 6 (O) + 9 (R) + 2 (T) + 1 (A) + 3 (L) = 25 -> 2+5 = 7 (done)
Angels = 1 (A) + 5 (N) + 7 (G) + 5 (E) + 3 (L) + 1 (S) = 22 -> 2+2 = 4 (done)
7 + 4 = 11 -> 1+1 = 2

Hence "Mortal Angels" = 2.

Now with my method:
Mortal = 4+6+9+2+1+3 = 25 (done)
Angels = 1+5+7+5+3+1 = 22 (done)

_25_**22** -> 2+5+2+2 = 11 -> 1+1 = 2

Which returns the same result. I am not sure if my simplified method always works, or only works in this case. Given the nature of the digital root, however, it should work in all case.

@Soul:

Ohh. That explains it.

Yah… math.

Basically each letter is assigned a number. So you convert all the letters to numbers (word by word) and add them all up. Then you smash each number-word together, and add up all the digits. You keep adding up all the digits until it is one digit long.
