Re: saint’s name –
It used to be very common to pick your baptismal name as your saint’s name.
Before that, it was very common to pick your sponsor’s name as your saint’s name, just as it used to be common to name your baby after his godfather/godmother/s.
Customs in the US tend to fluctuate, because we draw from so many different Catholic ethnic and historical customs.
