Namakaran (or Namakarana) is the Sanskrit term for the baby naming ceremony. Naamkaran is the common Hindi spelling. Cradle ceremony is the English term used widely in South India. All refer to the same event: the formal naming of the newborn. ShareInvite lets you use whichever term suits your tradition.

The Namakaran ceremony is traditionally held on the 11th or 12th day after birth, or on an auspicious muhurat chosen by the family. Some families hold it on the 28th day. The exact timing varies by region and community. Send digital invitations at least 7–10 days before the ceremony date.

The Namakaran template is ₹299 as a one-time payment: no subscription, and no charge per guest. You can fill in every detail and preview the finished invitation before paying; payment is only requested at the final publish step.
