How does the Catholic Church choose feast days - are they always the date of death of the Saint?

Sometimes the date of their death is the feast day but it is not the rule. It can be on almost any day of the year. Actually, the Church does not call it the date of death but the date the person was reborn into Heaven. Sometimes the date reflects some other important date in the life of the person. The date of his conversion to Catholicism was chosen as the feast day of St. John Neumann. Other times, especially with ancient saints when little is known about the person, almost any date may be chosen.
