About the Tamil Baby Name Finder

Choosing a baby's name is one of the first blessings parents give. This free Tamil Baby Name Finder helps you find an auspicious name based on your child's Janma Nakshatra (birth star), the family deity, the starting Tamil letter, or full birth details — every name comes with its meaning in Tamil and English.

By Nakshatra (birth star)

In the Vedic tradition, a child's name often begins with a syllable tied to the pada (quarter) of their birth star. Select the nakshatra and the tool shows its four traditional starting sounds in Tamil and transliteration, then lists the matching names.

By birth details

If you don't know the nakshatra, enter the date, time and place of birth. Using the same Swiss Ephemeris calculation as our Panchangam, the tool determines the exact birth star and pada, then suggests names for it.

Names of deities and Sahasranamas

Many Tamil names are drawn from the names of the gods — Vishnu, Lakshmi, Shiva, Parvati, Murugan, Krishna, Rama and Ganesha — and from sacred collections such as the Vishnu Sahasranama and Lalitha Sahasranama. Filter by deity or collection to find a name with devotional significance.

Chaldean numerology (optional)

For parents who follow name numerology, each name shows its Chaldean number, and you can optionally filter by a preferred number. Numerology is a guide only; for a final decision, consult a qualified astrologer.
