As per hindu astrology, each sign has two and one quarter constellations. Each Constellation is again divided to four parts charan. Thus one Sign is divided to nine parts. Each charan is assigned a letter and that letter is the ideal starting letter for a baby born in that charan.
Please use the below chart to find the letters for months as per the Hindu calendar. Also see baby names from birth star. If you don't know the birth star or janma naskhatra, you can use our nakshatra calculator.
