Confirmation names


Question Posted Sunday March 27 2005, 10:03 pm

My boyfriend is having his confirmation in May and he's asked me to pick his confirmation name for him. I'm not really a religious person so I'm really not sure what names would be appropriate to pick for him, or a name that would "flow" well with his name. Does anyone know of a site they could refer me to so I could look at names, or if anyone could suggest a name. My boyfriends full name is Timothy James Walsh, by the way. Thank you so much if you can help!

Name after a desciple like Paul or Simon. Simon's a pimp name. Or a gospel like Matthew MArk Luke or John. Or Aaron, just cuz it's kool. Or Jordan cuz that's the rivier John baptized Jesus in.

Seriously, the name of a saint or other holy person he digs is a great choice because it is personal and says something about him but it is also religious. The choice should ultimatly be his, but the church would be cool with you helping.

Seriously, he is supposed to pick it. That might actually get him in trouble, and he may not even know that.

Ask the priest and, if he says it is OK, go through the previously suggested list of Biblical names and see which sounds best.

Here's quite a list:

You might also sit down together and have a good laugh at the ones that DON'T work well. ;-)

Wow.. it was so safe for you to put his name on the web.. but besides the point, it can be any bible name.. and he's supposed to choose it, but anyway.

Luke
John
Paul
Simon
... you could probably google a list of biblical names on the web.
