If you are not sure of your baby’s rashi, ask your family maharaj or check the janmakundli made at birth.

How Gujarati Families Name a Baby Boy

Naming a baby is a family celebration in Gujarat, and a few customs make it special:

Chhathi (છઠ્ઠી). On the sixth night after birth, families keep a pen, paper and a lamp by the baby, as it is believed that Vidhata Mata comes to write the child’s destiny.
The foi names the baby. The father’s sister, the foi (ફોઈ), traditionally chooses and announces the name at the namkaran, singing the old rhyme "ઓળી ઝોળી પીપળ પાન, ફોઈએ પાડ્યું ___ નામ". You can read more about the Hindu namakarana ceremony here.
The rashi letter. Many families first get the starting letter from the maharaj, then the foi picks a name with that letter.
Pet names at home. Almost every Gujarati boy also has a loving home name, like Lalo, Kanudo, Bablo, Chintu or Golu, used by grandparents and cousins.

How to Choose a Gujarati Name for Your Baby Boy

Start with the rashi letter, if your family follows it. Use the table above to find the right Gujarati letters.
Say it with the full name. Gujarati names are said with the father’s name and surname, as in Devansh Hiteshbhai Patel. Say the whole name out loud before you decide.
Check the English spelling. Names like Jainil and Jenil, or Rushabh and Rishabh, have several spellings. Pick one and use it on the birth certificate, passport and school forms.
Think about life abroad. Many Gujarati families live in the US, UK, Canada and Africa. Short names like Neev, Vraj, Jay and Dev are easy everywhere.
Honour your faith and family. Krishna names for Pushtimarg families, Tirthankara names for Jain families and names like Ghanshyam for Swaminarayan families keep the family’s faith alive.
