You are given a certificate as a commemorative document, signed and presented, but it holds no legal status. What is the age limit for a Naming Day? Christenings mostly take place just for babies when they are very young but there is no age limit on a Naming Day and the child can be of any age.
Many people organise the event to welcome an adoptive child into the family or to embrace stepchildren into the family as a whole. Where can a Naming Ceremony take place? Absolutely anywhere! At the city hall, in a marquee in your garden, at a hotel or even in your own living room. It is customary to present the baby with a special Naming Day gift to mark this special occasion, especially if you are a close family member or a sponsor, guardian or guide parent.
Personalised gifts make great ideas for such an occasion because you can include the child's name on the gift! Here a Born Gifted, we offer a vast range of Naming Day gifts suitable for presenting to a baby and their families on the big day. Useful Information Below: You can find a British Humanist Association accredited celebrant here If you decide you want professional help planning and executing your Naming Day Ceremony the British Humanist Association has lots of great information.
Children of any age can have a naming ceremony — they are not just for babies. Anyone who has legal guardianship of the child can arrange a naming ceremony. We can also create a ceremony for someone who has recently received their gender recognition certificate and wishes to celebrate the occasion.
Naming ceremonies can be held wherever you like, as long as your Registrar is comfortable with your choice.
These can be in the registration office, at a hotel or even in your own home. Check out our website for a list of current venues speak to your registrar if you have another location in mind. Think carefully about the promises you wish to make to your child and, if appropriate, discuss these with your partner or family. Ask grandparents if they would like to be involved.
You can also consider making your ceremony unique by including ceremony enhancements such as candle ceremony, flower ceremony or even plant a tree if your ceremony is at home.
Naming ceremonies are optional — they are not legal ceremonies and must not be confused with birth registration, which all parents are required to do by law. Naming ceremonies, and any written record of the event, cannot be used for identification purposes and are not legally binding on those that participate.
