In the Bible and in cultures worldwide, naming is a powerful act. Names have meaning, and that meaning provides a vision - can a person live up to their name?

You chose your child’s name for a reason - it means something special to you, and you hope to communicate that meaning to them.

NameSakes are designed individually to make a visual statement that does just that! You supply the meaning - we supply the image. Each NameSake is thoroughly researched and uniquely designed for your child’s name.

Is your child’s namesake a saint? A loved one? A character from the Bible? Their individualized NameSake will reflect that. We incorporate first, middle, and often last names into one unified design.

Best of all is CRIMSON LINE STUDIOS’ NO RISK payment policy. If you don’t love it, YOU DON’T PAY! The design goes into our portfolio, no strings attached.

Because each NameSake is a unique, individually-crafted commission, prices will depend on the complexity, research, and time required to execute your design. Though prices may vary, all prices are negotiated IN ADVANCE before the work begins. Additional sizes and options available based on individual consultation. Please use the order form's Comments section to begin the process of customizing your NameSake.
