Was having this conversation with a friend the other day who just had a dedication ceremony for her second DD.

From what I can gather it may depend on the church. With my friend they decided against god parents as the god parents can actaully have input in the religious upbringing of the child. They did not want that input from other regarding their children, even though they are very active members of their church. Can't remember what their church is, but it is not one of the major ones.

I would suggest having a talk to your church
