Naming Ceremonies
Baby Naming Ceremonies
Baby naming ceremonies are a fun, light-hearted, and wonderful family-friendly celebration as well as a creative way to publicly declare a new addition to your family and community. This type of celebration would be appropriate for welcoming a newborn, honoring a young child’s birthday, or simply celebrating the official naming of a child.
The bespoke ceremony that you will co-create with me as your Celebrant is not only a beautiful and formal way to introduce your precious child to your beloved community, but also an incredibly fun opportunity to enhance your connection to your community as they have come to support and encourage both you and your child along your journey together.

Adult Naming Ceremonies
Adult Naming Ceremonies are held when a person takes on a new name and wishes to have a formal way for their beloved family, friends, and community to witness and celebrate this milestone in their lives.
This may be as the person has transitioned from their gender at birth and wishes to take on a new name, or perhaps another milestone in their life which includes renaming themselves. These ceremonies can vary a lot depending on the person, their beliefs and ideals, and their reason for taking on their new name.
There are many reasons for someone to choose a Naming or Renaming Ceremony and to affirm a new name. A Naming Ceremony can help you celebrate a new beginning in your life, or you may feel that the name you were given doesn’t properly reflect who you are. As your Celebrant, I am adept at understanding pronouns and am accomplished in providing beautiful and unique Transgender Renaming Ceremonies.
This powerful bespoke ceremony that you and I will co-create together that takes you and your beloved guests through the transformational rituals of your Renaming Ceremony at all four quarters of the sacred circle; this can be a profound experience for everyone who gathers at this important life event with you.
