Naming Ceremonies
Naming ceremonies have become more popular not as an alternative
to Christening, but as a unique opportunity for parents of their child,
to promise to be the very best parent and to pledge themselves to the
upbringing of their child in a series of promises and to reinforce the
bonds of family and friendship and to bind all together to welcome
the child into the family.
This can involve not only the parents, but also the older Brothers and Sisters, Grandparents and supporting adults in making promises to the child and to make an understanding of giving them love and guidance as they grow up.
These ceremonies can be conducted anywhere. At the home, a Hotel, in a garden, at the beach; the choices are endless! Also there are many unique and exciting ceremonies that can be incorporated too. Even in letting loose doves or butterflies!
Here for example are some ceremonies that you can include at your Naming Ceremony:
• Candles/Unity candle ceremony.
• Circle of support ceremony.
• Sand ceremony.
• Sharing a Cup/Loving Cup/Quaich ceremony.
• Stone ceremony.
• Coin ceremony.
• Tree planting ceremony.
