Why do people choose a saint's name for their confirmation name?
It's a Customary Tradition expanding on their taking a Christian Name for their Baptism. The Confirmation is part of the "Rites of Initiation" of the Sacraments. Note that the naming is a "custom", and separate from the purvue of "Sacred Tradition". As a custom it is also Optional, meaning don't stress if one is not taken (as I didn't). Some people also use their confirmation name in place of their Middle name
Why do churches confirm people who are baptized?
Churches confirm the baptized because often the baptism was done to an infant with God Parents affirming the promises: renounce the devil, believe and follow Jesus Christ, and usually believe the Apostles' Creed. When the child comes to the age of reason, often around thirteen years, the child then personally confirms these promises made on his behalf in the rite called Confirmation. Many churches also affirm the Christian name of the child at baptism, usually, but not always, the given name. Some churches encourage the child to select a personally meaningful private name for use at confirmation. In ancient times, and still in some places, the record of baptism is the earliest official record of a birth.
