About this list
Pick a starting letter, or switch tab to boy, girl or unisex. The bar always shows A to Z. A letter with no names on this tab is grey and cannot be opened. A letter with its own published page opens that page. Every other letter keeps its names here, so you are not sent to an empty tile.
Each name links to its page for the meaning, the Devanagari spelling, the Chaldean number and the nakshatra pada. Numerology and the star are tradition, not a promise about the child. If you already know the birth nakshatra, start from the nakshatra list or the birth-details tool. If you only have a spelling in mind, use name search. Families who want both parents' sounds in one real name can try the blend, which never invents a spelling. This directory is the full list we publish today. A name still being checked stays off the public search index until two readings of the meaning agree. 5012 names are on this tab.
Questions
- Why is a letter grey?
- That letter has no name on this tab. It stays visible so the A to Z bar does not jump when you change tab.
- Where is the meaning?
- Open the name. English sits under the spelling, with Hindi, the number and the nakshatra pada on the same page.
- What if the letter has no list of its own?
- The names still show on this page. A letter earns a separate page only when the list is long enough.
