Naming of a Child It is customary
to name your child after a deceased relative. * This is a
time lasting tradition that has taken root for many reasons.
The Rabbi's teach us the concept that a name is not simply a
convenient convention, but it reflects the nature of each
creature. The names of people have had a profound
significance that expressed their mission in life. By naming
the child we hope the child will benefit from the deceased
and carry out the good works of the deceased. The naming
takes place when the Torah is read. This custom of naming
the child by the Torah is only performed for females due to
the fact that for boys the custom is to name the boy only by
the circumcision, this custom is passed down from Abraham
our forefather.
