Naam Karan (Gurmukhi: ਨਾਮ ਕਰਨ, romanized: nāma karana, lit. 'to name') refers to the Sikh ceremony of naming a child, typically conducted at a Gurdwara, a Sikh place of worship.[1]
The timing of the ceremony is flexible and not bound by a strict schedule.[2] The well-being of both the mother and child is paramount, and the ceremony is usually scheduled based on their health and recovery.[3][2]
