Know Rashi, Nakshatra with name
Rashi, Nakshatra and Pada (charan) with first letter of your name
In the table given below, first, the names of the Nakshatras are provided, followed by each pada (Charan/Quarter) and its corresponding letter, along with the names of the Rashis (Moon signs).
For example, in Aries (Mesha Rashi), Ashwini Nakshatra has four padas, Bharani Nakshatra has four padas, and Krittika Nakshatra has the first pada. In Taurus (Vrishabha Rashi) sign, Krittika Nakshatra has the remaining three padas, Rohini has four padas, and Mrigashira has the first two padas. In the next column of each Nakshatra, corresponding padas for the Nakshatra given.
How to find your Rashi and Nakshatra based on name's first letter?
If your first name is Ramesh or Rajesh, check in the table where first letter of your name 'Ra' falls. It falls under the third pada of Chitra Nakshatra. This means your Nakshatra is Chitra and your Rashi is Tula (Libra). If your name is Harish, the first letter of your name 'Ha' falls under the third pada of Punarvasu Nakshatra. So, your Nakshatra is Punarvasu and your Rashi is Mithuna (Gemini). Only first name should be taken in to consideration to know your rashi, not your sur name.
What about names with conjunct letters? how to know Rashi and Nakshtra?
Now, let me explain how to determine the Nakshatra and Rashi for names with conjunct letters. For example, if your name is Krishna, the letter 'Kr' falls under the third pada of Mrigashira Nakshatra, so your Nakshatra is Mrigashira and your Rashi is Mithuna (Gemini). For the name Drona, the letter 'Dr' falls under the third pada of Swati Nakshatra, making your Rashi Tula (Libra). In this way, you can determine the Nakshatra and Rashi for other names as well.
