#4917 A Household Name
Question
Is it recommended when avoiding the giving of a baby’s name by zoom for the grand-father or other person to be honored, but can’t be present to name a Sheliach (agent) to represent him when naming the baby?
Should the Shaliach announce before giving the name that he is representing the one that was honored with the name giving but was unable to come?
Answer
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that it could be done and is indeed correct to mention the name of the honored one represented.
