The Puritan names given to their children would often remind them of the hopes and duty before The Lord. I have not yet found any in the Cuckfied Registers and would love to know if you have.
Twenty examples of these names are:
Be Faithful (Joiner)
Fight the Good Fight of Faith (White)
God Reward (Smart)
Fear Not (Hely)
Kill Sin (Pemble)
Humiliation (Hynde)
Master Performe-thy-vowes (Seers)
Replenished (Pryor)
More-Fruits (Fowler)
Redeemed (Compton)
Weep-not (Billing)
Elected (Mitchell)
Renewed (Wisberry)
Fly-fornication (Richardson)
The-Peace-of-God (Knight)
Kill-sin (Pemble)
Hope (Smith)
Fly-from-Fornication (Bull)
Mercye (Hely)
Make Peace (Heaton)
