Names with context.
Auntie with opinions.

Meanings and origins

The first ten name guides link to dictionary entries supporting the underlying word and meaning. Wiktionary is a community-edited dictionary; its entries often reference historical dictionaries. A word's etymology does not establish a name's popularity or exclusive use by a gender, religion or region.

These guides were prepared with AI assistance and have not received specialist linguistic review. The broader catalog is still being researched. A missing origin is labeled “Not yet verified”; existing recorded origins elsewhere in the catalog are not a claim of completed review. Style and gender groupings are editorial choices.

Spelling and voice

Devanagari spellings are provided for comparison. They are not a substitute for a name's spelling in every language or script. Auntie's audio is synthesized in an Indian English voice, not a native-speaker recording for each language.

Rashi and numerology

The catalog maps the first Devanagari syllable to a naming-sign table. Some syllables overlap and the implementation uses fallback mappings, so this is only a naming association. It does not calculate a child's birth rashi, which cannot be inferred from a name alone. Name numbers use a Pythagorean letter-to-number calculation. These features and Auntie's predictions are for entertainment.

Choosing a name

Use the source links, ask family members about pronunciation and cultural associations, and compare spellings before making your choice. A meaning is context for a name, not a promise about a child.
