Saint Names for your Baby
As you prepare to welcome your new infant sons and daughters into the world, one of your most exciting responsibilities as a parent is choosing a name that they'll carry with them throughout life. Some of the most meaningful and interesting names can be found in the cloud of saints and witnesses in Holy Scripture and the Catholic Church. The Saint Names for Your Baby app provides you with the names and information for over 1,000 saints, including meaning and origin of the name, feast date, place of origin, an image, details on what the saint presides over, a brief biography, and much more. Special functions allow you to search by gender, create a favorites list and circulate those names to loved ones who can help weigh in on this important decision. A perfect tool for expectant parents and grandparents. Our Sunday Visitor. iOS $0.99
