Nakshatra, pada and rashi

Rudraksh starts with the syllable Ru (रू), which the Avakahada chakra gives to Swati pada 1, in Tula (Libra) 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.
