The Naming of a child is very important. As Believers, we should be able to prayerfully consider the name of the child that God has given to us. This really should be the case in every culture and Nation. Children should not be named by fate or fortune teller (as happens in some countries). Children should not be named in some ridiculous way that is going to embarrass them as they grow up. Children should be named lovingly, prayerfully and carefully. We should pray for the new parents in our family, Church and social circle of friends, that they should be able to name their new baby children well.
