As Mate, you have a natural interest in the welfare of your fellow man, and a desire to help and serve others in a humanitarian way. Any tasks requiring too much attention to detail, or involving monotony or drudgery, dismay you. Others sense your sincere interest and desire to help, and you can always be counted on to see the bright side of any problem. Spontaneous and inquisitive, you enjoy meeting and mixing with people from many different backgrounds and you relish opportunities for debate. In your work you would seek a position offering self expression through contact with people such as sales or teaching, or an outlet providing scope for your creative artistic talents. You are responsible and generous, although somewhat scattering and disorganized at times. In personal relationships you are affectionate and considerate, and love to make those around you happy. Your optimism can be a source of inspiration to others as well as yourself. Although there is a tendency to worry, on the whole this is a healthy name. Liver or skin problems or an over-heated bloodstream could result from an indulgence in quick-energy foods.
