325. Wealthy fortunate follower of religion?

He was originally called "Namgyal Wangdi", but as a child his name was changed to one meaning "wealthy-fortunate-follower-of-religion".

His exact date of birth is uncertain, but he knew it was late May from the weather and the crops. Later, he decided to treat 29 May as his birthday, as it was on this date that he performed a momentous feat.

Who? And why 29th May?
