434.0. "Help on naming ceremonies???" by FRAGLE::KUDLICH () Fri Sep 01 1989 15:14

    We are looking for a naming ceremony for our first, due january.  We
    are not into the batism ceremonies, but would like something to
    introduce her (next month it will be a him!) to the world.  I have
    heard of some American Indian naming ceremonies; does anyone know of
    any others?  A special one they saw?  We are not particularily
    religious, so any ideas are welcome.
    
    Her name may be Acadia Keith--hows that for unique?! (nicknames from
    Kate, and so on...)
    
    Thanks,
    Adrienne

    You may find some interesting alternatives in the Unitarian
    Universalist notefile, PSYCHE::UU. There is a ceremony called 
    a Welcoming for a newborn that can be exactly as you like.
    Check there for some interesting discussions on ceremony alternatives.

    I think that the Jewish religion has a naming ceremony also.  You
    may want to check the different ones and create one that suits you
    and your husbands needs.
