Ashvini

Ashvini (अश्विनी, IAST: aśvinī) is the first nakshatra (lunar mansion) in Indian astronomy having a spread from 0°-0'-0" to 13°-20', corresponding to the head of Aries, including the stars β and γ Arietis.

The older name of the asterism, found in the Atharvaveda (AVS 19.7; in the dual[1]) and in Panini (4.3.36), was aśvayúja, "harnessing horses".

Notable personalities born in this nakshatra are Sania Mirza, Bhimsen Joshi, Yukta Mookhey.

[5] Traditional Indian names are determined by which pada (quarter) of a nakshatra the Ascendant was in at the time of birth.

In the case of Ashvini, the given name would begin with the following syllables: Chu, Che, Cho, La.
