How do I find my rashi by name?
Take the first sound (syllable) of the name and find it in the table. The nakshatra pada holding that syllable gives the name rashi. For example, a name starting with "Ra" falls in Chitra nakshatra, Tula (Libra) rashi.
What is the difference between name rashi and birth rashi?
Birth (janma) rashi is the sign of the Moon at the time of birth and is the accurate one. Name rashi is taken from the first letter of the name when birth details are not known.
Can kundli be matched by name?
Yes. When birth details are unknown, the nakshatra of each name's first syllable is used for the 36-guna Ashtakoot match. Our name-based kundli milan tool does exactly this.
