it's actually called the same thing in sicilian believe it or not. madrina is godmother and padrino is godfather. the same rule of thumb applies in my family - whoever is the maid of honor and best man at your wedding will be the godparents to your first born child...sooooo many traditions, but i love em

this may sound really stupid, I'm sorry I don't know, but are their godparents in Jewish Faith?



nope, I don't think so. At least, I don't have any, and neither do any of the Jews I know!
