homeschoolmom Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I think the hardest part for me about my daughter possibly having a religious vocation is her changing her name. If she were to marry and change her surname, that would not bother me, but her given name was a gift that we gave her.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah147 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I'm going to be silent about the names in my heart, but I will say it's not a matter of the names "sounding/looking nice" but of them being after Catholics that have had a big impact in my life, and that are a huge witness to the Faith. Sort of "Saints-to-be" in my opinion. I connect more to them than Saints I've read about, so there ya go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I think this will be one of the most difficult aspects for my parents as well. And I'm unsure of how to help with it. I completely understand. It's one of those tough things that... well, just is. I had a few different nicknames as a child and a few that my parents still call me. In fact, they don't often call me by my first name, but by these nick names. I'd feel comfortable if they continued to do that after, God-willing, I receive my new religious name. If they could use my religious name in public and around the community... I'd hope they could do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tally Marx Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Sr. Pio Mariana (Padre Pio & Mary) Sr. Gianna Therese (Gianna Molla & Therese of the Child Jesus) Sr. Gianna Francesca (Gianna Molla & Francis of Assisi) Sr. Mary Anthony (Mary & Antonio of Padua) I have no idea, as for titles. I've never thought about it. Maybe "of Our Lady of the Most Precious Blood"? I don't even know if that can [i]be[/i] used. But... I like it.
