How do I find a lucky name for a baby by date of birth?

Work out the baby's mulank (the day of birth reduced to one digit) and bhagyank (every digit of the full date, reduced). Then choose a name whose Chaldean total is friendly to both numbers. Enter the date and the names above and the calculator scores each one for you.

Which number is best for a baby name?

There is no single best number. The name's number is read against the baby's own birth numbers. A baby with mulank 1 and bhagyank 3, for example, is read as suited by names that total 1, 2, 3 or 9, and clashing with 4, 6, 7 and 8.

Does the spelling of a baby name change its number?

Yes. Ishaan and Ishan, or Kavya and Kavyaa, add up differently in Chaldean numerology. Check the exact spelling that will go on the birth certificate, and try variants if a favourite name clashes.

Is the baby's date of birth stored anywhere?

No. The score is worked out in your browser and the baby's date is not saved.

Why the birth date comes first

The baby's mulank (day of birth) and bhagyank (the full date) are fixed. The name is the one number you can still choose, so it is picked to sit well with both.

How a name gets its number

Each letter takes its Chaldean value, the values are added, and the total is reduced to one digit. Aarav totals 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 6 = 11, then 2, a Moon name.

Spelling changes the number

Ishaan and Ishan, Kavya and Kavyaa total differently. Check the exact spelling that will go on the birth certificate, and try variants if a favourite name clashes.
