The name of Botolf has given you an appreciation for many beautiful and refined aspects of life--music and art, literature, drama--and the outdoors, where you find much peace and relaxation, but it creates a far too sensitive nature. You sense and feel much that you do not understand, and sometimes you are alarmed at your thoughts and wonder about their origin. Also, you could develop an extraordinary ability to concentrate on complex theoretical subject matter such as mathematics, although your success in such endeavours would be limited by a lack of patience and perseverance, and by difficulty in sustaining systematic effort over the long term. Given the training and opportunity, you could excel in music, art, drama, or writing. This name gives you a strong appreciation of nature and sensitivity to the deeper questions of life. At times, you are very inspired, desiring to be with people and to entertain others as the "life of the party," while at other times you are aloof and choose to remove yourself entirely from association. When the mood suits you, you can be engaging and entertaining in a social situation, but you can swing unpredictably at the slightest offence, real or imagined, into a chilling silence that rebuffs others. Family, friends, and business associates often find you to be uncommunicative and secretive. You have suffered many disappointments and misunderstandings because of your inability to express your inner thoughts. You crave understanding and affection but your intensity of desire and your self-consciousness prevent you from finding the happiness you desire.
