The Bible says that all true Christians are Saints. By that definition Billy Graham and Pat Robertson and I are all saints.
I don't know why anyone would use a non Biblical definition.
And since you are a girl, who probably doesn't want to choose "Billy" or "Arthur" as her name, how about chosing "Saint Ruth", Billy's late wife?
At the 2nd link below, you can read every verse in the Bible which includes the word, "saint", so you can see for yourself how the Bible uses that word.

If you don't tell us the Saint 's name it is difficult for me of others to help you out.
Just the same I will give it a try!
You must study that Saint life, but it is very difficult live the way that they did or sacrificed themselves for others.
Let's take Mother Theresa of Calcutta for example , she lived in a vow of poverty all her life by refusing all the modern facilities that were offered to her. So if you can write about her for instance you will begin on where she was born and try to follow her life from there ,until the end of her life .
If you want me to help you, I will do some research for you , but I need to know the name of the Saint that you have chosen. I hope that I was of some help to you .

Well, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you're Catholic. I believe there should be some resource from your pastor on the hundreds of patron saints. Were I to choose, and I'm not Catholic, I'd go for St. Francis or St. Thomas. The former for his love of animals and the less fortunate. The latter because I'm a big doubter as he was. Mustard seeds have nothing on me.
Anyway, this web site might help.

Saint is the name ALL Christians were called. It was changed to Christian about the same time the Catholic church developed in 305/6 A.D.
So just name anyone in the New Testament, that followed truth.

Yeah... and make sure that you pick an active Saint. I heard that a lot of Saints were disqualified recently...

How is it you are being confirmed and don't know any saints names?????
Pick your grandmother's first name and find the saint equivalent of it.
