Hope is a name derived from the Middle English hope, ultimately from the Old English word hopian referring to a positive expectation or to the theological virtue of hope. It was used as a virtue name by the Puritans. Puritans also used Hope as an element in phrase names, such as Hope for, Hopeful, and Hope still. The name is also the usual English translation of the Greek name of Saint Hope, an early Christian child martyr who was tortured to death along with her sisters Faith and Charity. Hope has been among the top 1,000 names given to girls born in the United States since 1880 and has been among the top 500 since 1909.
