Before the navel-string is cut, the birth-rite must be performed for a male child
and while sacred formulas are being recited, he must be fed with gold, honey, and butter.
But let the father perform or cause to be performed the the rite of naming the child,
on the tenth or twelfth day after birth, or on a lucky lunar day and time, under an auspicious constellation.
Let the teachers connect with knowledge, warriors with power,
traders with wealth and workers with duties.
Let the first part of a Teachers name denote something auspicious, a Warriors be connected with power,
and a Traders with wealth, but a Workers express something contemptible.
The second part of a Teachers name shall be a word implying happiness, of a Warrior a word implying protection,
of a Trader a term expressive of thriving, and of a Worker an expression denoting service.
Let the teachers connect with knowledge, warriors with power,
traders with wealth and workers with duties.
The names of women should be easy to pronounce, not imply anything dreadful, possess a plain meaning,
be pleasing and auspicious, end in long vowels, and contain a word of benediction.
