Hebrew Name Ceremony

Connor was named Moshe Eliezer
אֱלִיעֶזֶר, מֹשֶׁה‎

We chose to name him after my paternal grandfather, Moshe, and my maternal great-grandfather Eliezer.

We arrived a little early to get ready. Aunt Julie came with a special gift for Connor.

What is it?

His very first yarmulke!

It fit perfectly!

Right before guests started to arrive, we sat down for a quick snack. This was also the first formula trial to make sure he didn't have any issues drinking it. He didn't even notice a difference.

Everyone gathered in the family room.

To start the ceremony, Great-Grandma walked Connor into the room to present him to the audience and Rabbi.
Rabbi Lisa explained the traditions of Hebrew names.

Full of smiles during the whole thing!

Aunt Julie, Grandma, Grandpa and Mommy all did nice readings about babies and family.

Officially presented with his Hebrew name

The final part of the ceremony was the blessings over the wine and challah.

Presenting Moshe Eliezer!

The ceremony went very well and it was such a nice time to be with family & friends. You were perfect during the ceremony and greeted everyone with big smiles!
