Initiates in Candomblé are known as "filhos de santo" ("children of the saints"). At their initiation, they are given a new name, the "nome de santo" (saint's name), which usually indicates the identity of their tutelary orixá. Many individuals arrive at Candomblé through problems in their lives, such as sickness. A priest or priestess will use divination to determine the cause of the problem and its remedy, sometimes revealing that initiation into the religion will fix the issue. If a group of individuals are being initiated together, they are termed a "barco" ("boat").
