Baby naming ceremonies are similar to a baby shower. It's a celebration, normally held in the late morning with a light brunch.

Naming ceremonies are held for Jewish girls. The reason for this is that because they don't have a bris, they never had the opportunity to have 'mazel tov' wished on them by the community. At the naming ceremony, friends and family of the parents gather, usually for a nice brunch, and the parents introduce the baby to everyone and tell them what the baby's name is and who she was named after.
