Each Confirmation Candidate must select a Confirmation name. This name can be your baptismal (given) name, or the name of another Catholic saint. In the Bible, a change of name often signifies a conversion or a new sense of mission (i.e. Saul to Paul). Thus, the selection of a Confirmation name represents not only a new sense of mission in the Church, but the recognition of another saint whose example is one that is admired.
