| Summary | "Curiosities of Puritan Nomenclature" by Charles Wareing Endell Bardsley is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the unique and often eccentric naming conventions among Puritans, shedding light on their influence on English nomenclature, particularly during the Reformation period. Bardsley presents a thorough examination of the origins, significance, and evolution of various names, many of which were derived from biblical sources, reflecting the Puritanical emphasis on scripture. At the start of the work, Bardsley provides a preface outlining his gratitude towards contributors in his extensive research on Puritan names and a particular focus on the church records from Warbleton, which yielded over a hundred names of Puritan origin. He notes that the trend for unique naming conventions saw its peak during the Reformation, marking a departure from previous naming practices. The introduction sets the stage for an exploration of the socio-religious context behind the peculiar names that emerged during this era, culminating in a greater understanding of how these naming practices impacted both personal identity and community culture within the Puritan society.
