How many time u take a name of god?

this is a serious question .

Ok, just wanted to make sure before I engaged. I don't "take" any "God's" name specifically but we do have a shrine set up. We have two actually, one out in the living room, and one for the children in their room. Ganesh is on their shrine because it was the statue that we were given when I was pregnant with our daughter. We have our Buddha and Shiva statues out in the living room. I suppose for us, we do spend time in meditation, but other times we just speak to them as if they were just there, like speaking to a friend. We leave offerings though.
