Correct Answer: The child was named Ritesh by me.


Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive voice.

The structure of the passive voice in the case of the simple past tense is: "Singular subject + was + past participle form of the main verb + object + by + agent of the action."

Therefore, the passive sentence is: The child was named Ritesh by me.
