I read that it was a feast held by the Greeks on the fifth or seventh day after the child's birth to introduce them into the family and name them(nameing was only in poor families). In rich families there was a naming cremony called dekate. In Greece many children didnt live very long after their birth and so that is why this ritual is a little bit later in the child's life. well i hope that helps!
