About Revati Nakshatra
Revati is the 27th of the 27 nakshatras in Vedic astrology. It is ruled by Mercury (బుధుడు) and falls under Meena (Pisces) (మీన రాశి). Babies born under Revati nakshatra are traditionally named with syllables starting with De, Do, Cha, Chi (దే, దో, చ, చి), corresponding to the four padas of this nakshatra.
The naming tradition (Namakaranam) is based on the Moon's precise position at the time of birth. Each pada spans 3°20' of the zodiac and prescribes a unique starting syllable. This ensures the baby's name resonates with their birth star's energy and the planetary influence of Mercury.
