Your first name, Yerke, creates an independent, determined, and persevering nature. You appreciate honesty and you are loyal to friends and family and will go to great lengths to help someone in need. You enjoy working with your hands, adding originality and novelty to your creativity. It is not a part of your nature to observe and return in kind the little attentions and gestures of affection of close associates. You feel awkward and embarrassed because you recognize your verbal restrictions in not being able to be as diplomatic, sympathetic, and solicitous, as others would like. You can take candidness from others as you are not easily hurt. This name has not made you naturally theoretical or philosophically inclined, as it restricts the development of a depth of perspective and vision and tends to make you self-oriented and limited at times to your immediate responsibilities. Being much focused on your pursuits, at times you overlook the personal considerations and attentions that create understanding and companionship with others. You enjoy outdoors activities with a few close friends. You are loyal in friendships and express candidly.
