Receiving Collares Before Knowing Your Head Orisha?

Bendiciones!

Out of curiosity, here’s a hypothetical scenario: If someone receives their collares before being crowned, would they already know who their head Orisha is at that point? Or do some Ocha houses give collares without determining the person’s head Orisha first?

I was always under the impression that you wouldn’t definitively know your head Orisha until going through the KariOcha ceremony, but I’m curious if that varies by house or tradition.

Thanks!
