Your first name of Apte gives you a clever mind, good business judgment, a sense of responsibility, and an appreciation of the finer things of life. You take your responsibilities seriously, are organized and disciplined in your habits, and can be depended upon to do a good job. Home and family mean a great deal to you and it is natural that you should desire the security of a peaceful, settled home environment where you can enjoy the companionship of family and friends. You have a need to be independent and you prefer to make decisions without interference from others. Whatever you set out to accomplish you do your very best to complete in accordance with what you consider to be right. You are serious-minded and not inclined to make light of things even in little ways, and in your younger years you had more mature interests than others your age. A harmonious home environment is important to you, and is where you are able to relax and recharge. Although you are respected for your steadiness and analytic qualities, you are sometimes resented for what is perceived as bossiness or interference when you impose your will on others in your desire to help them resolve their problems. Others can rely on you; once you have given your word you will do your utmost to fulfil a responsibility. Due to a tendency to take life too seriously, a weakness of this name could be excessive worry over problems and responsibilities.
