    Laugh, or not, with me. I realize names given to children in early times usually had some reason attached to them. I found a couple of them in my family tree from 150 years ago that sure had me wondering about them. One boy was given the first name "Wealthy" ( probably hopeful thinking) and his sister had been given the first & middle name of "Early Lay" ( Question Suspect, poor child, not her fault).
