After a baby is born, Hindu families consult a purohit to determine the letters or syllables for the baby’s name, based on Vedic astrology. This process involves two main methods:
Birth Star
A birth star, or nakshatra, is associated with the Moon. There are 27 lunar houses, each containing star clusters, which help decide the baby’s name letters.
Zodiac Sign
Zodiac signs can be Moon or Sun signs, with the Sun representing the fatherly figure and the Moon the motherly figure. Their movements guide astrologers in determining names and festival dates.
These methods, informed by experts like Guru Ji Dr. Raj from Dubai, are essential in naming a child, reflecting their personality and traits.
