Custom christening song
Christening presents repeat themselves — a silver spoon, an album, an envelope. A song with the child's name in it is the only one they can play back for themselves at eighteen.
So this song is made for two audiences at once: the guests on the day, and the child years later.
Create a christening songWhich kind to make
There are two sensible versions and they sound nothing alike.
- A lullaby — quiet, slow, with the child's name. This is the one that gets played at bedtime for years.
- Something for the day — brighter, for the room, with the parents and godparents named.
What to tell us
The child's name and what they are called at home, the parents' and godparents' names, the date, and one wish — what you want them to hear when they are old enough to understand it. If there is a story behind choosing the name, send that too; it usually becomes the best line in the song.

Questions
- Can it be a lullaby?
- Yes, there is a quiet style for exactly this. Say lullaby in the description and pick a female voice.
- Can the godparents be in it?
- Yes — send their names and how they relate to the family.
- Does it work as a gift from the godparent?
- It does, and it is one of the few christening gifts that will not duplicate somebody else's.
- How do I keep it forever?
- Download the MP3 from My music within the first seven days. After that we delete our copy, but yours stays yours.
