So I'm reading this non-fiction book about the Salem Witch Trials and the author (Frances Hill) says: "In those early days (1635) there was a vogue for giving children bizarre-sounding names of religious or political significance. One family's five children were dubbed...

Truegrace
Reform
Hoped for
More Mercy
Restore

Another family's four were

Return
Believe
Tremble
Increase"

*It kind of reminds me of today's Honor, Cadence, Noble, etc etc trend.
