Naming and the Importance of Names
There has always been a debate about names. Are children destined to carry
out the expectations of the names given them? Can a Jeeves ever reinvent himself
to be anything but a butler? Were the names given to the twins in Steinbeck’s
‘East of Eden’ a kiss of death for anything but a replay of the story of
Cain and Abel?

Naming and Choosing a Name for Your Baby
Valentino like James Dean, died while his career was just beginning to take
off. Had he lived longer he may have retained his charismatic reputation. Or, as
in the case of many others, it may have died under the weight of second rate
movies.
However, whatever his acting ability, Valentino
recognized that some names simply don’t generate the right sort of
suggestibility.

Naming and Wishing Ceremony
Since a Baby Naming is a Naming Ceremony is a ceremony evolving as we speak, it is interesting
to see some of the new aspects entering into the celebration, such as making a
wish for the baby’s future life.
Not really a new concept. Wasn’t there something about fairy godmothers who
wished some wonderful things for Snow White? And wasn’t there one fairy
Godmother who was so ticked off by something or other, that instead of a good
wish, she landed Snow White with a rather bad one?
At a Naming Ceremony making a wish can take many formats.

Naming and Godparents
Cinderella had a wonderful fairy Godmother who helped Cinderella achieve her
heart’s desire in meeting and captivating a prince. This kind of Godmother
seems to be totally different from the kind of Godfather Marlon Brando
portrayed. But despite this, or perhaps because of this, parents often wonder
whether the term Godparent is appropriate term to use for a Naming Ceremony.

Naming Gifts
We all know the tendency for the bride and groom to be feasted with gifts
galore. Quite often, though, they return the favour by feasting the gift-givers
with gifts of their own.
Similar gift-giving is appearing at Baby Naming ceremonies.
Obviously the baby is inundated with all sorts of good things.
Here are books that will make a real difference to you as a Celebrant
whether you're performing naming ceremonies, commitment ceremonies,
wedding ceremonies, renewal of wedding vows ceremonies
