Book NowDeciding the Letter of Your Baby’s Name as per Vedic Astrological Science
Introduction
After the birth of a baby, in almost all
Hindu homes, the
purohit determines the letter or syllables for the baby’s name. Based on this, parents decide the final name. These letters are determined as per
Vedic astrology, a well-structured science that operates on
planetary movements, celestial placements, and nakshatras. Several methods are used to decide baby names.
Methods to Decide Baby Name as per Vedic Astrology
Method 1: Birth Star
Before discussing this method, it's important to understand what a
birth star is. Also known as a
lunar house or nakshatra, it is primarily associated with the
Moon. There are
27 lunar houses, and each contains a cluster of stars. The
letter of your baby’s name can be selected based on the
nakshatra or birth star of the child.
Method 2: Zodiac Sign
In
Vedic astrology, zodiac signs are classified into
Moon signs and Sun signs.
- The Sun is considered the fatherly figure.
- The Moon is regarded as the motherly figure.
The harmony between the Sun and the Moon is believed to be the reason for human existence.
How Zodiac Signs Influence Baby Names
- Astrologers determine festival dates and the letters or syllables for baby names based on the movements of the Sun and Moon.
- Zodiacs act as boundaries of the solar system and guide naming conventions.
- The Sun takes nearly a year to move from one lunar house to another, making it a fixed guiding star for name calculations.
- The Moon moves faster, shifting across lunar houses in just 2¼ days, influencing emotions, personality, and thoughts of a child.

naam karan sanskaar (naming ceremony) is a common ritual performed in
Hindu homes. This involves a
yagya (fire ritual) where the baby’s name is officially given as per
Vedic astrology.However, it is
not mandatory for every child to be named using Vedic astrology, but doing so is believed to influence life events positively.
