Nakshatra, pada and rashi

Purnima starts with the syllable Pu (पू), which the Avakahada chakra gives to Hasta pada 1, in Kanya (Virgo) rashi. By tradition it suits a child whose Moon was in that pada at birth.

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