Amazing and easy search. Double check names before taking them to the temple. Always check for duplicates and accuracy.

I love this app for finding names to take to the temple weekly. My only problem is it will give me names in my reservation and names that are not reserved. It would be great if it stoped returning names I have already reseved and gave me 5, 10, 20 new names instead. The reason I need more reserved names is because I go with a large group, and we can go through 20 names very quickly. I then share the names after baptisms and confirmations so other can complete the remaining ordinances.

Tried this app again over two years after my last attempt, and although they promised improvements to the issues I had last time, I didnt find any evidence of any improvements that fixed our situation. My sons are always looking for names to bring to the temple for baptisms, and I put in the search criteria "male" and "baptisms", but it only brought back a bunch names they had shared with the temple, both genders, all having the baptism/confirmation done! Useless for helping them. Uninstalled.

This app is great! I can reserve my own family names for my family to do baptisms each week. It would be even better if you could filter your search to endowments on their own, rather than grouped with initiatory and sealings. I find that when I need a name for endowments, the results all still need initiatory.

This app is very helpful and useful. I really enjoy using this LDS Family History app for helping me find people on my family tree that needed temple work done. I highly recommend this app to anyone want to learn more about there family tree or need a faster way to find names to take to temple.

My experience with this app has been super. I have been able to do many temple names that I wouldn't have taken the time to research adequately.

About this app

Take a Name is a family history app for LDS Church members who want to take their own family names to the temple. It requires a FamilySearch account with access to LDS ordinances.

Find temple ready ancestors. Take a Name searches the FamilySearch tree for your deceased ancestors and double checks that LDS ordinances are ready for the temple.

Request LDS ordinances and print temple cards – from your phone!

Try before you buy, pick your price. Try Take a Name for free! You can purchase the app when you're ready via in-app purchase.

Less time searching. More time serving. Take a Name typically delivers dozens of temple ready family names in a matter of minutes. It’s genealogy, but easier!

FamilySearch Certified. Kinpoint is a FamilySearch partner, authorized to submit names for temple work.

Data integrity. Take a Name performs a detailed set of data checks to provide confidence that an LDS ordinance is temple ready. It also excludes names of ancestors with unresolved duplicates. Take a Name does far more than simply scraping the FamilySearch website for green temples!

Spend time in the temple with your ancestors instead of outside trying to find them.

Genealogy has never been so satisfying!

Fixes crash that happened on launch with Android 10.
