How to Choose Baby Name? Naming your Child | Enhancing their Destiny

How to Choose Baby Name: In Indian culture, the naming of the child is a big event. Giving the child proper baby child names is very important because the name is one thing that remains with us throughout our lives and has an ability to make life prosperous or otherwise in the long run. While naming the child, the parents need to be aware of certain Muhurta principles and certain principles of naming.

As far as Muhurta Principles are concerned,

The proper day of the ceremony would be the 10^th, 12^th, or 16^th day after the birth of the child. In case this is not possible, an auspicious day must be fixed for this purpose.

The nakshatras which are suitable for naming a child are as follows

Anuradha, Punarvasu, Magha, UttaraPhalguni, Uttaraashada, Uttarabhadra, Satabhisha, Swati, Dhanistha, Shravana, Rohini, Ashwini, Mrigashira, Revati, Hasta, and Pushya.

The 4^th, 6^th, 8^th, 9^th, 12^th, 14^th lunar days and Full Moon and New Moon days should be avoided.

Of the days, Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays are good. The rest are not suitable for this purpose.

For people who can get the timing for the naming of their children done, certain muhurta parameters can and should be followed.

An important thing to remember is that girls should be named such that their names contain odd numbers of letters ( Radha, Parvati) and boys’ names should have even numbers ( Krishna, Rama, Hari ).

Now, every Nakshatra has a list of vowels for its four padas.

It is advisable that we name the child along with those alphabets. This would be beneficial for the child. When we name the child with some other letter apart from what he or she should be astrologically named, then such a child, as he or she grows up faces multitude problems as Saturn affects the child twice as many times in his or her life – once when transiting over Moon and once when transiting over the pada of the name nakshatra – hence creating unnecessary issues for the child.

The best way to name the child would be to know the Nakshatra and its pada in which a person’s child is born. Then take the 9^th Nakshatra from it. For example, if a child is born in the 3^rd Pada of Hasta, then we should check the syllable of the 9^th Nakshatra that is Uttaraashada, and name the child with a name beginning with Ja – Jai, Jay, Janvi, Jaden, Jane, etc. This ensures that the child remains happy and protected for a long.
