Your baptismal name is your birth name, as written on your birth certificate that your parents chose for you. For example: George Michael (last name). In Confirmation, you add a first name, to put after your birth name. The name is generally taken from a Saint's name, but does not have to be a saint name. So George Michael 'Timothy' (last name) might be the Confirmation name. By the way, except for Confirmation, this extra middle name is rarely used for any purpose.
When you choose a Confirmation name you are choosing a saint that is very special to you and who you wish to use as a role model for your life. When you were born your parents chose your name and patron saint. Now that you are confirming your faith as a young adult, you have the opportunity to choose.
