Bharani (devanagari: भरणी) is the second nakshatra in Hindu astronomy, corresponding to 35, 39, and 41 Arietis.
In Hinduism, Bharani is a goddess of bad luck. [citation needed] Like her sister Anuradha, she is a daughter of Daksha, and wife of Chandra.
Under the traditional Hindu principle of naming individuals according to their birthstar (see Jyotisha), the following Sanskrit syllables correspond with this Nakshatra, and would belong at the beginning of a first name:
Li (pronounced as in "little")
Lu (pronounced as in "look")
Le (pronounced as in "levity")
Lo (pronounced as in "local")
