This is a long story, so I'm posting the link.

Catie, do people in your denomination name kids after saints?

In the Catholic Church, it used to be required. I don't think it is anymore, but it's encouraged. You can use the feminine form of a boys name, like Brianna for Brian.

The link is missing.

Kids named after saints, nope, not really. It isn't required some like to give biblical names. Our 3 have biblical names for their middle names. (Elizabeth, Matthew, Joseph) The names were chosen because of their meanings though. My name: Mary=Bitter Catherine=Pure - "pure bitter" lol
