Your Questions

What is a Naming Ceremony?

A Naming Ceremony is a special non-religious event to celebrate a special family occasion for your child or children. It is an opportunity to make an open commitment to parenthood and to strengthen relationships by involving family and friends. However, the ceremony has no legal standing and cannot be used for identification purposes.
