About Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra
Uttara Phalguni is the 12th of the 27 nakshatras in Vedic astrology. It is ruled by Sun (సూర్యుడు) and falls under Simha / Kanya (సింహ / కన్య రాశి). Babies born under Uttara Phalguni nakshatra are traditionally named with syllables starting with Te, To, Pa, Pi (టే, టో, ప, పి), 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 Sun.
