I am going to be confirmed soon and I am trying to choose a confirmation name. I am trying to decide between St. Giovanni Bosco and St. Joseph of Copertino. I am leaning towards St. Joseph because I also like piloting airplanes besides magic; St. Joseph of Copertino is the patron Saint of Flight. My favorite magic tricks are levitations and he seemed to be good for that. St. Giovanni Bosco isn't an official patron Saint yet, but he was known because he always taught the Christian religion using simple magic tricks. Some of the tricks that he did can compare to some of the greatest magicians of today's time. I need some input from you guys, and feel free to make any other suggestions besides the two that I have chosen.

Copertino is very close to Copentro, the classic coin penetration trick. In fact I Copentro is an anagram of the Saint's name. Thus you could choose him and still keep your ties to magic and a reason to give yourself a nice present of a Copentro as a confirmation gift

Yeah I like the name Joseph better. So you're being confirmed in the Catholic Church? Ever heard of Orthodox Christianity? You should look into it!
