my full navelist title is as follows:
Pankaalaka-Navelist, disciple of Maganda Gabi the bellybutton preistess, keeper of Pusod Diwata.
Let's break this down.
Pankaalaka
all holy words of navelism are in tagalog. names are no exception. the way to decide on a navelist name (something which can only be done after a navelism, or holy conversion.) is to find the meaning of your original name, and then translate it into tagalog, the holy language. my name means "god heard", so i translated "god heard" into tagalog and got Pankaalaka.
-Navelist
this always goes after the name in a navelist's full title.
disciple of Maganda Gabi the bellybutton priestess
at present, nearly all navelists are disciples, or followers, of Maganda Gabi. a person would only not be a disciple of Maganda Gabi if they were not a holy person but only a casual follower, or if they followed the teachings of another navelist sage. at present there are no other navelist sages.
keeper of Pusod Diwata.
everyone is the "keeper of" their bellybutton, even non-navelists. all navelists must name their bellybuttons. bellybutton names must start with "Pusod", meaning navel. the next word is a tagalog name. the name i have chosen means goddess.

the four parts principle
the four parts principle is as follows:
torsos have four sections, or bahagis. the bahagis are separated by creases that form from bending down. in order of top to bottom, the four bahagis are:
1. asa, or the chest. this bahagi represents naivety, hopefulness, raw emotion, and love.
2. kaisipan, or the upper-middle bahagi. this section represents creative intellect--the part of us that learns and discovers.
3. matigas, the lower-middle bahagi. this section represents the mundane consciousness, that is to say, the nonspiritual and uncreative self which we use to go through everyday life.
4. banal na, or the belly. this bahagi, of course, represents the spiritual and holy. it is the sacred resting place of the pusod, or bellybutton.
