Nakshatra, pada and rashi
Sankaran starts with the syllable Sha (ष), which the Avakahada chakra gives to Hasta pada 2, 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.
Name number (numerology)
In the Chaldean system the letters of “Sankaran” add up to 20, which reduces to 2; Indian numerology associates 2 with Moon (Chandra).
Numerology is a traditional belief system, not a calculation of the sky; other spellings give other numbers. Numerology calculator
