Wikipedia also says:
The World Encyclopedia considered anyone who celebrated the birth of anyone else to be following a pagan custom. The ancient Greeks, for instance, believed that each person had a protective spirit that attended the person's birth and thereafter watched over him. That spirit "had a mystic relation with the god on whose birthday the individual was born," says the book The Lore of Birthdays
