We don't have an official set minhag but we like to do it at the next laining because relatives are eager to hear the name and we don't want to share it before. I also feel like it takes the pressure off having to make a big kiddush or whatever right away. DH will sponsor breakfast at shul and then we can do something bigger later. All of my girls were named on weekdays based on when they were born

No set minhag, but I like to have the baby named as soon as feasible. First baby, we came home Erev Rosh Chodesh so baby was named the next morning. Second was born Shabbos morning, named at Mincha. (Gave birth within the eruv/walking distance of shul.)
Third girl, born Shabbat, it took longer to settle on a name so she was named the next Shabbat. Based on one or two other replies here, I'm glad to see I'm not alone in struggling to name once the available family names dwindle.

I had boy girl twins and waited until the boy's bris to name the girl.
If I had just a girl I'd probably do the next leining day if we were sorted for names.

My daughter might have the world record on this one. She was named an hour after she was born. It was Shabbos and Yom Tov. In Hadassah Ein Kerem. I was feeling great and we agreed on her name right away, my husband went up to the Shul and they were leining, they gave him an Aliya and he named her.
