Nakshatra, pada and rashi

Narayan starts with the syllable Na (ना), which the Avakahada chakra gives to Anuradha pada 1, in Vrishchika (Scorpio) rashi. By tradition it suits a child whose Moon was in that pada at birth.

नाNa
Nakshatra
Anuradha
pada

Rashi of this pada
Vrishchika (Scorpio)

The four syllables of Anuradha:

  1. pada 1नाNa
  2. pada 2नीNi
  3. pada 3नूNu
  4. pada 4नेNe

The fit comes from the name's first sound only; the Moon's nakshatra pada at birth is calculated in the Kundli.

Name number (numerology)

In the Chaldean system the letters of “Narayan” add up to 16, which reduces to 7; Indian numerology associates 7 with Ketu.
