In Vedic astrology, babies are traditionally named using the first syllable corresponding to their birth nakshatra's pada. Pushya has 4 padas. Find your baby's pada from the nakshatra calculator (based on exact birth time and place), then choose a name starting with the syllable for that pada.
Not sure which nakshatra your baby is born in?
