What are the Five Ks in Sikhism? What does atiq mean? Who helps choose the name of a Muslim baby? This book explores the ways people in different cultures and religions celebrate the naming of a new baby. Some naming ceremonies are held at the birth itself, while others do not take place for weeks or even months after birth! This book describes the way some cultures consult horoscopes to choose a baby's name, while others, like the Chinese, use generation names. It also includes religious naming ceremonies, such as those carried out in Judaism and Hinduism.
