Tool to compute the value of a word, a name according to its alphabet letters. In numerology, it is common to associate to a given word, a numeric value, for example, for a surname, the sum of its letters.

The value of a word is a rather arbitrary concept which associates a value with a word (a name, a person, an object etc.), generally according to its letters (which themselves have a value).
In numerology, it is common to associate a numerical value to each letter of a word, a value, usually its rank in the alphabet. Take A=1 until Z=26, and add the numeric values found for each letter (the letters calculator sum up automatically) to get the word's value:
Example: DCODE = D+C+O+D+E = 4+3+15+4+5 = 31
Numerology is a pseudo-science, it is a belief without scientific foundation, attention to its use by charlatans.
Alphabet letters default value chart:
A | 1 | B | 2 | C | 3 | D | 4 | E | 5 | F | 6 | G | 7 | H | 8 | I | 9 | J | 10 | K | 11 | L | 12 | M | 13 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
N | 14 | O | 15 | P | 16 | Q | 17 | R | 18 | S | 19 | T | 20 | U | 21 | V | 22 | W | 23 | X | 24 | Y | 25 | Z | 26 |
To solve the calculations like ABC+DEF=GHI use the solver of cryptarithms.
The value of a word has no scientific meaning. Any statement about the value of a word has no scientific basis, yet many numerology beliefs make values say just about anything (love, chance, death, etc.).
Numerology uses recursive reduction, which consists in applying the calculation (usually addition) until having only one digit:
Example: DCODE = 31 and 3+1 = 4
This calculation also called digital root, is widely used to associate a number between 0 and 9 to a name.
The sum A+B+C+…+Z so 1+2+3+…+26 is equal to 351.
