Your first name of Bowling gives you self-assurance, independence, and confidence. You must be independent and you do not brook interference in any way. As you are not demonstrative of your feelings, others know they can lean on you for support and protection. Those who know you best appreciate your loyalty and honesty. Because you value friendships you do not hesitate to come to the aid of someone in need; however, your assistance is usually accompanied with words of advice. Although you do not tolerate interference in your own affairs, this characteristic does not prevent you from interfering in the affairs of others. You have depth of mind and the ability to concentrate and to follow a line of thought to a logical conclusion. You love to challenge the concepts of others, developing your own ideas and pioneering new lines of thought. Although you are good-natured and never intend offence, still your blunt, direct, and candid manner of expression strains friendships; your honesty and sincerity earn respect from others. You have to be your own boss as it is most difficult for you to submit to direction from others.
