namam no. 323) praaNadah (प्राणदः) (ప్రాణదః)

aum praaNadaaya namah (ओं प्राणदाय नमः) (ఓం ప్రాణదాయ నమః)

The namam praaNadah is the first among the names that describe koormaavataar of the paramatma here afterwards.

He is called praaNadah as He gave devatas the 'praaNam' meaning the strength that is required at the time of the churning of the ocean using the mandhara mountain as a churning stick.

This namam came earlier as 66th namam. It will appear again as 409th and 956th namam. This is the only namam that comes 4 times in the entire vishnu sahasra nama stotram.

aum namo bhagavate vasudevaya!
