The celebrant of baptism is the person who administers the sacrament by pouring water. This is the priest or deacon. In cases of emergency only, anyone can baptize, if the person is not old enough to speak for themselves. But the usual celebrant is the priest or deacon or bishop.
No, the Sacrament of Confirmation completes Baptism.
Christianity practices baptism as a sacrament or ritual.
There are many symbols in a Roman Catholic Baptism including: 1) Water: to purify the celebrant of original sin (Water is poured over the celebrant's forehead) 2) Oil: to mark the celebrant as a child of God (Chrism oil is placed on the celebrant's forehead in the sign of the Cross) 3) Fire: to signify the continuing presence of the Holy Spirit in the celebrant's life (A candle is presented to the celebrant's family, as they are guardians for the celebrant. Note that the celebrant will be able to accept the presence of the Holy Spirit in his/her life in a later sacrament called Confirmation. For now, the parents and godparents are making this decision in the name of the celebrant.)
