Done. Becoming a godparent is good, if it’s a niece or nephew of yours you get to legitimately have a favourite, you get to publicly renounce Satan (while privately not renouncing him) and you get to make constant Italian-American organised crime-based jokes for a day.
I have a godfather - he is AWOL, not heard from him for years. He is called Chris, can’t remember his surname. MY mum probably knows what he is up to
My kids have multiple godparents - but that was my exes wish rather than mine.
No one has ever asked me - 2 of my best friends are godparents to my kids but they didn’t reciprocate as they are not religious at all and their kids are not christened
When my son was due to get christened we asked my (atheist) friends to be godparent. The ex was going to a fairly strict / proper church at the time. The vicar guy came round to talk to us about the christening, and because I wasn’t a believer myself he didn’t want me to take part in the ceremony (we hadn’t told him the godparents were non-believers too)
Sorry - boring story but it thoroughly irked me at the time
