It is increasingly common for children to be given a naming ceremony in the first months or even years of their life. This occurs, even in families with a particular belief with the parents electing to allow their child to make up their own mind later in life about embracing the family religion. The texts offered provide suggestions for wording and format of such ceremonies. They may be suitable for older children or adults as well, and can be used in a variety of situations, such as a change of name
