Choosing a Catholic Name
The Church encourages baptismal and confirmation names that reflect Christian identity—often a saint who will intercede for the person. Our Catholic Name Generator offers names rooted in Scripture and the communion of saints.
Baptism vs Confirmation Names
At baptism, a Christian name is given. At confirmation, many Catholics take an additional saint's name as a model of holiness. Talk with your parish about local custom.

FAQ
Must a confirmation name be unique?
No. Many choose Mary, Joseph, or a favorite patron. What matters is living the vocation the name represents.
