Your first name of Niva creates individuality, independence, self-confidence, initiative, and an inclination to physical activity. You would find particular satisfaction in working with your hands, either in a skilled trade or in a hobby. Once friendship is established, you are very loyal and steadfast and do not tolerate gossip or criticism. Others find it difficult to accept your domineering and, at times, argumentative manner. It is difficult for you to find the right words for such circumstances. You are not inclined to merge your opinions and viewpoints with others, to accept compromise, or to work in a subservient position against your will. Your expression is invariably quite direct and candid, and lacks the moderating tone of tact, diplomacy, and friendliness. Your circle of friends is restricted to those of like nature. It is difficult for you to find the right words for such circumstances. Such conditions are aggravated by your appetite for heavy foods such as bread, potatoes, or milk, which promote the formation of mucus in the system.
