Have you named your Guardian Angel? Mine is named Peter. I named my angel after our first pope.
What is your angel's name? Why did you pick that name?

Dearest joy in Christ, Jeff and Patrick:
Christ is glorified in His Saints! May He also be glorified in us!
I'll wait until the name of my guardian angel is revealed to me - either on this earth or in heaven. If Michael was given the name Michael, then all the angels already have names. Would that be the case?
Anyway, I am not about to give him another name. Who am I to name him when he inspired my Godparents to give me my names at Baptism?
Somewhere in the bible or in the book of Revelation, I thought, someone said that we will have a name given to us in heaven. Is that true? Or is that our baptismal name?
Your sister in Christ,
Elizabeth

Reps: 14 (power: 0) | | I think it's our baptismal name- the one written in the Book of the Elect- the one submitted to the Bishop... Mine is Aurelia after St. Aurelia the Anchoress who gave up being a princess to consecrate her life to God as a hermit in Austria when her parents tried to force her to marry instead of becoming a nun. ;o)
As far as angels, I just think of mine as being my little brother that died.. Ian Michael his name is... he would have been 9 this year....  |

Dearest Sister in Christ: Christ is Risen!
Welcome to the Christianforum!
Yes, you have a precious little saint in heaven to pray for you, but you also have a guardian angel.
Some people have been privileged to see their own guardian angel. The lives of the saints attest to that. Today, though, if they publicly announced it, they would probably be forced to see a psychologist. So our true saints are forced to live quiet lives today.
So welcome to the forum and I will pray for you as you make plans for your wedding day.
God bless you.
Your sister in Christ,
Elizabeth |

I named mine Bela because I like the eastern european sound of it, and because Bela Bartok is one of my favorite composers, and it just "sounded right." I hope nobody thinks that is lame or whatever. He is my right-hand angel.

My dearest Angel: Christ is in our midst!
Just so everyone knows, this Elizabeth is not your mother!! LOL I have a son, not a daughter.
I was taught that angels were males by the dear old sweet nuns. However now they are teaching that angels are neither male nor female. I'll let God do the naming, and address then as "guardian dear".
Your sister in Christ,
