Naming ceremonies for babies are a beautiful alternative to a christening — no religion, just warmth, welcome, and whatever traditions you’d like to start.
We’ll celebrate your little human, their name, their quirks, and the village around them.

You might include:

Meaning behind their name

Promises from parents, siblings, or guideparents

Poems, stories, or symbolic rituals (candles, trees, bubbles...)

Appointing chosen mentors or “grown-up cheerleaders”

Music, laughter and cuddly chaos

Whether you’ve welcomed an adopted child, gained step-siblings, or simply want to honour your modern family structure, this is a ceremony that reflects your unique unit — exactly as it is.

You might include:

The story of how your family came together

Promises from each person to each other

Shared rituals like pouring sand, tying ribbons or lighting candles

Involvement from all ages, including younger kids or teens

A chance to make everyone feel seen and included

Naming ceremonies for adults can be powerful moments of affirmation, visibility and joy. Whether you’re marking your transition, reclaiming a name after divorce, or honouring your heritage, this ceremony can be whatever you need it to be.

You might include:

Sharing the meaning or story of your chosen name

Reflections from friends, family or a support circle

Symbolic actions (writing, water, candles, spoken declarations)

A ritual to let go of the past and step into what’s next

The people who’ve walked alongside you — chosen family, allies, or guides
