Namakarana when your family lives across countries
Namakarana is the naming ceremony — timing and ritual details vary by community. For families abroad, the hard part is usually coordination: birth-star sound from the chart, agreement with elders in India, and sharing without leaking child data into public links.
A simple diaspora sequence
- Generate a free Baby Kundli for accurate Moon nakshatra and naming sound.
- Share a namecard or private family invite — not a URL with birth details in the query string.
- Collect suggestions and votes; keep one spelling for passports and school forms.
- Align ceremony date with your priest or temple; online tools support identity and naming, not ritual instructions.
Time zones and elders
Send the naming sound and shortlist early so grandparents can respond asynchronously. If you save a Child Profile, family invites are opaque tokens you can revoke. Unsaved results share as a device namecard only.
Trust and research
Read our Baby privacy promise. Parents in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia can also volunteer for a research interview — no child birth details collected on that form.
