Registerability: From the May 1985 LoAR:
| Baldwin of Erebor | 1985.05.12 | According to E.G. Withycombe (pp. xxxvii-xl), the Puritan "quality" names were most rife between 1580 and 1640. The practice was late in our period, and it was uncommon, even among the Puritans. Nonetheless, if we assume that occurrences of such names were evenly distributed over the years named, fully a third of the high period lies within the scope of the SCA. This seems to me a significant enough fraction to permit documented Puritan "quality" names, or names formed on this pattern, to be registered within the SCA, at least on a case-by-case basis.
