Complete Name-Changing Ceremony

This is a complete name-changing ceremony, used if a name no longer fits a cat. This ceremony would have been used for cats such as: One-eye, whose name was changed from White-eye after she had become an elder; Halftail, whose name was changed from Sparrowpelt after losing most of his tail in a fight with a badger; Lostface, whose name was changed to Brightheart by Firestar after Bluestar had given her the cruel name which served as a constant reminder of the grave injuries she sustained from the dog pack in the forest; and Crookedstar, whose name was changed from Stormkit to Crookedkit following the accident that broke his jaw and permanently disfigured him.

Clan Leader:  "Spirits of StarClan, you know every cat by name. I ask you now to take away the name from the cat you see before you, for it no longer stands for what he/she is. By my authority as Clan leader, and with the approval of our warrior ancestors, I give this cat a new name. From this moment on he/she will be known as _(new name)_."

Clan: "____! ____! ____!"
