Hopeful

"A well-chosen name, especially as the successor of FAITHFUL. Faith first, and then Hope; first the ground-work, then the superstructure. We are here for the first time introduced to one who ever after proves a meet companion and profitable help to CHRISTIAN, amid all the changing scenes of their chequered course."[1]
