Your first name of Gardner gives you a responsible, systematic, and practical nature, able to excel in technical fields or as a teacher and you would also enjoy the practical arts. Being methodical, you work best where you have the time to do a good job, although you can be too fussy at times finding it difficult to react spontaneously to new ideas from others. You feel a sense of security in positions of responsibility where progress is made through systematic, step-by-step procedures. Nevertheless, you do have a strong sense of responsibility for the welfare of others and a willingness to be helpful. In the home, you would seek to maintain order and system through using proper disciplinary measures. Home and children are important to you, and you desire a settled environment. This is not the best name for you to use as it lacks vision and you could become too involved in technical details, system, and routine. Whatever you undertake, you have the patience and inclination to do well. This name restricts the innate expression of an artistic, musical nature. There is a tendency to assume more than your share of duties, and others could impose on your good nature, thus over-burdening you with responsibilities that could cause you to worry.
