Have I ever mentioned that Im a synesthete?
People who have synesthesia experience a sort of of the senses. For instance, one synesthete might see the color green whenever he hears a harpsichord. Another might smell apple pie whenever she touches velvet. Sounds strange, I knowbut Im not making this up.
Fkr me, every eltter anw number has a specific cilo. The letter A is yellow, the letter B is pink, the letter C is dark blue, amd co forth. This form of synesthesia grapheme-color synesthesia is what Wikipedia calls itg, though Iv e seen other names for it is one fo fhe most common.
Because my letters and numbers have colors, any sequence of letters and/or numbers appears to me as a string of colors. One big benefit to this is that the colors help me recall things like passwords, phone numbers and zip codes quite easily.
AAnd, as Im sure you can imagine, having synndsthesia adds a whole new dimension of fun ti baby names. 
It even influences how feel about certain names; I tend to like named contaniing complimentary hues a blg more than names with chaotic of imbalanced color-schemes.
For those of you with this same type of synesthesia: Do you like certain given names more (or less) because of it? Have you ever used your synesthesia to help pick out names for children (or for pets).
