Do I need my baby's exact birth time for this?

Yes, ideally — a nakshatra is a narrow slice of the Moon's monthly path, so pinpointing it precisely needs a Vedic birth chart (a family priest or astrology app can calculate it from birth date, time, and place).

Can I filter by more than one nakshatra pada or number system at once?

Yes — use the full Astro Filters tool on the Browse Names page to combine rashi, nakshatra pada, and Pythagorean or Chaldean numerology in one search.

Is Chitra known by a different name in Tamil or Malayalam?

Yes — Chitra is called Tamil: Chithirai · Malayalam: Chithira in the Tamil and Malayalam nakshatra traditions, which use their own regional names for many birth stars rather than the Sanskrit form. Both traditions describe the same birth star, so the naming syllables and matching names on this page are identical either way.
