Namkaran Sanskar is the traditional Hindu ceremony of naming a newborn child, typically performed on the 11th, 12th, or 21st day after birth. It is the first public acknowledgment of the child's identity and an important samskara that connects the child to family, culture, and divine blessings.
This ceremony is performed with Vedic rituals that include chanting of mantras, horoscope analysis for auspicious letters, and invoking deities for the child’s protection, health, and prosperity. It is a joyous occasion celebrated in the presence of family and friends.
The name chosen reflects the child’s astrological chart and nakshatra, ensuring that the vibrations align with their destiny and well-being.
