Your name of Hay gives you a strong urge for independence. Nothing intimidates you once you make up your mind. Neither sentimental nor idealistic, you take life as it comes and learn as you go. A physically active person, you have an appreciation for outdoor recreation, which you prefer to pursue on your own or with one or two close friends who share the same affinity for the peace of nature and the physical challenges it provides. Even though you are aware of what is required, it is difficult to convey emotional sentiments such as sympathy or compliments. You can express your deeper thoughts and feelings best through writing. Your friendships and personal associations are rather restricted, being limited to those of a similar nature who can understand and accept your rather straightforward yet reserved manner. In conversation, you prefer to use as few words as possible and often choose silence rather than idle chatter. There is originality and depth of thought contained in this name, particularly along practical and mathematical lines. You work best where you can combine physical labour and prefer to work where you can spend time outdoors.
