Re: Colonial names
in reply to a message by rosalyn
What exactly do you mean by colonial? Ancient Romans colonizing North Africa? 7th century Arabs colonizing the Middle East? Japan colonizing China in the 1930s? The British Empire colonizing 3/4 of the world? Assuming you mean 18th century American, I'd say common, biblical names, like Mary (which May is a nickname of), Joseph, John, Elizabeth, etc, as well as Puritan names such as Hope, Grace, or Thou-Shalt-Not-Commit-Adultery.
