III. The Christian Name

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

2156
The sacrament of Baptism is conferred “in the name of the Father and of
the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”⁸⁵ In Baptism, the Lord’s name
sanctifies man, and the Christian receives his name in the Church. This can be
the name of a saint, that is, of a disciple who has lived a life of exemplary
fidelity to the Lord. the patron saint provides a model of charity; we are
assured of his intercession. the “baptismal name” can also express a
Christian mystery or Christian virtue. “Parents, sponsors, and the pastor
are to see that a name is not given which is foreign to Christian
sentiment.”⁸⁶
