FLAMES Name Calculator
Enter two names to test the classic FLAMES (Friends, Love, Affection, Marriage, Enemies, Siblings) letter cancellation game!
How FLAMES Letter Cancellation Works
FLAMES is a popular nostalgic childhood name game used for lighthearted entertainment. It counts common letters in two names to map them to the letters F-L-A-M-E-S (Friends, Lovers, Affectionate, Marriage, Enemies, Siblings).
I calculate the FLAMES result by canceling matching letters between the two names, counting the remaining unmatched letter length, and counting iteratively through the 6 FLAMES letters until one stands remaining.
Note: FLAMES is an informal party game and not part of classical Vedic astrology or Ashtakoot Kundli matching.

The FLAMES Acronym Meaning
F = Friends, L = Love, A = Affection, M = Marriage, E = Enemies, S = Siblings. Each letter represents one of six classic playful categories.
Letter Cancellation Logic
Common letters in both names are crossed out. The remaining count determines how many steps to count around the 6-letter FLAMES ring.
