    I'm no longer religious in any way, but if you could pick your confirmation name now, or change your old one, what would you choose?

    I'm torn between Santa-Cruz and Berlusconi.

    When I picked my confirmation name I got in trouble actually.

    The school and church wrote to my parents as I refused to take a saint's name.

    Has to be a saint I think so it'd be St. Tibulus.

    I picked the name Louise and I would choose it again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,597 ✭✭✭Witchie


    My son got confirmed last may and took Fechin. His name is now Jacob Marley Fechin.

    I took Roberta after my hero of the day bob geldof (was around time of live aid). If could choose again I would choose drew.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,670 ✭✭✭✭Wolfe Tone


    Robert.


    I picked James for some unknown reason!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,884 ✭✭✭Eve_Dublin


    I just picked my favourite name back then...Sinead. It's not even a saint's name. Not sure how I got away with that one. I still like it though.

    I wonder how the girl in my class who chose Madonna feels about hers now?

    No really, the name you have now is just fine.

    I'd pick something more religiousy like 'Mary' or 'Joseph'. I presume 'Jesus' is out of bounds?
