Namkaran Puja

Namkaran Puja is the ceremony that takes place to name a newborn baby. It is performed in order to formally maintain the child’s given name, which is the first word of the name offered by Panditji based on the baby’s Nakshatra. Namkaran Puja is a ritual in which the child is given Samskaras, which is thought to be of paramount importance in the development and raising of the child. This ceremony is typically performed on the 11th day. If the ceremony cannot be completed on that day, it must be performed within three months of the baby’s birth or on the baby’s first birthday, whichever comes first. Panditji performs the ceremony, which includes Gauri Ganesh Puja, Kalash Puja, Punyaha Vachanam, Namkaran (which is done by whispering the child’s name in the right ear while singing Vedic mantras), and a havan (which is conducted for the baby’s Graha Shanti).
