Confirmation Name
Each candidate is to choose 3 saints to learn about. You will then choose one of them to be your sponsor name. Your confirmation name should be a reflection of who you would like to imitate in your life. Choose someone who inspires you. Your saint might share a name with a relative you are close to. Use this chance to think about what you hope you will receive from the Sacrament of Confirmation and how you hope to live as a Confirmed Catholic.
