The Sanskrit name of the Solar Plexus chakra is Manipura chakra. It is known as the seat of power. It governs our willpower, gut instinct, self-confidence and the ability to create our life. It defines our choices, self-esteem, trust, wisdom, clarity, being able to put your views to others, and being self-disciplined.
