What is Degodfathered?
1.
The act of being asked to become the "Godfather" of a child, then only to be asked to step down from that honor before the baptism ceremony or shortly thereafter.
Would you be the godfather of my child? Sure! I am sorry to inform you, but you have been degodfathered and we have selected another person to be the godfather of our child. Thanks!
