The name of Caedmon has given you the desire for creative, artistic or musical expression in an original way. With increased familiarity you are inclined to speak your mind in a forthright, sometimes argumentative manner which creates annoyance and often hard feelings. You thrive on interacting with people when you can implement your original ideas. Seldom planning ahead, you undertake projects and work out the details as circumstances arise. You strive to be different and have the self-confidence to implement your ideas because you have the perseverance necessary to see something through, despite obstacles. You do not depend on others for encouragement, but you respond to appreciation and enjoy being the centre of attention. You enjoy new ideas and new projects, but have difficulty in following through if once you find the novelty of an activity has worn off. However, once you make up your mind that something is going to work, you persevere until it is accomplished. This name does not offer the softness of expression for long-lasting compatibility in close associations. In an argument, you usually emerge victor, but at a cost.
