Pada 1 · Te (టే)
Leo 26°40′ – 30° · Navamsa: Sagittarius (Jupiter)

Which pada of Uttara Phalguni was your baby born in?
The Moon's position in the birth chart gives the nakshatra and pada. If the Moon was in Leo 26°40′ – 30° at birth, for example, the baby was born in pada 1 of Uttara Phalguni and the naming syllable is Te (టే). A pada lasts only about six hours, so near a pada boundary the birth time must be exact.
