Name correction
Which of your numbers a change of spelling would actually move, and which it could never touch. The life path comes from your birth date and is fixed for life — any tool that offers to improve it is selling you something.

Two systems, two answers
Pythagorean assigns 1–9 across the alphabet in order. Chaldean assigns 1–8, never 9, and follows the sound of the letter rather than its position — which is why most Indian practice uses it and why the two systems disagree about the same name. Both are scored, and neither is presented as the answer.
