A baby born in Hasta nakshatra (Kanya (Virgo)) takes a name beginning with one of its four pada syllables — Pu, Sha, Na, Tha — the exact pada fixed by the Moon's precise position at birth. Below: 36 pure Vedic names with meanings for every pada, the nakshatra's full classical profile.
Savitar
Deva
Mahisha (buffalo)
Adi

Kanya (Virgo)
Deva gana — the temperament of grace: gentle, generous, naturally trusted. The yoni (Mahisha (buffalo)) and nadi (Adi) matter later in kundli-matching — noted here so the name-record stays complete.
