Naming a child is a spiritual practice. A name gives an identity and place to the newborn. It is also like a prayer as a name signifies the hopes and desires parents have with their children. So why not give a sacred and holy name to your bundle of joy?
Holy is being pure, innocent with no motives of doing wrong to anyone. It’s like being transparent as the crystal and being open-hearted as a little child.
Holiness is the means of achieving pure motives and learning the moral truth. It brings forth the righteousness and separates from the wickedness of spirit. It is also the standard for the actions and the foundation of relationships.
