Just look up what Saints are patrons of. My confirmation name is Cecilia, she is the patron saint of music. I sing and play an instrument. Something along those lines...

St. Maria Goretti - Feast: July 6th (Optional Memorial)
Born: 1890 -- Died: 1902 -- Canonized: 1950
Roman Calendar: Yes -- Roman Canon: No -- Other:
St. Maria Goretti is the first saint in history whose mother was present at her canonization. Believe or not so was Alexander Serenelli, her killer. When St. Maria was 10 years old her father died and Alexander said he would kill her if Maria did not give into his seductions. She refused and he stabbed her 14 times. St. Maria on her death bed forgave Alexander and appeared to him in a dream 8 years after her death and gave him a bouquet of flowers. He converted to Catholicism and was later pardon by the wishes of St. Maria's mother. He was released from prison after 26 years. He became a Franciscan tertiary before he died. St. Maria is the Patron Saint of Teenage Girls and Youth.

you have to pick your own name? I thought names were given to you.
hmmm.... asking here you're going to get ideas... I'll just say this, I'm not going to give any names for you to pick, but when getting a spiritual name, there are 2 types of names people usually get, names that either represent an aspect of the personality they already have, or a name that represents something they need to aspire to.....
take that & think on it....

Research saints and see which one resonates with you. I picked Raphael, the Archangel because I really felt drawn to him. I've known people who choose a saint that reflected their heritage (like Bridget for Irish descent). We can't pick the name out for you, that's your descision.

These websites might help you. Good luck! It's a wonderful ceremony when you're Confirmed.

My favorite is Francis of Assissi, but for a girl there aren't alot of choices. Be Mary Magdeline shes the easiest to explain ;-p

Look up St. Rose of Lima. That was mine, and Rose is a pretty name.
