Naming Ceremonies
A naming ceremony offers you the opportunity to welcome your baby into the family.
Naming ceremonies can be used for children of any age, including adopted children or stepchildren. You can choose the content of the ceremony and anyone you expect to play an important role in the life of your child can involved.
If you would like to book a naming ceremony, call us on 0208 753 2140, or email us on registeroffice@lbhf.gov.uk
You must bring a birth certificate with you when you book your ceremony.
A naming ceremony has no legal status and cannot be used to change the name of a child. We will give you a commemorative certificate at the ceremony, but this cannot be used for any legal purposes.
