“ Miss Murray in her remarkable anthropological study The Witch-Cult in Western Europe gives the names of nearly 700 witches, male and female. As regards the women there is an entire absence of Saxon names, Old Testament names are so few in number as to be negligible, Scandinavian names are not found, essentially Puritan names hardly occur, but the great mass of the names fall under eight heads with their dialectical differences: Ann (Annis, Agnes, Annabel) ; Alice (Alison) ; Christian (Christen, Cirstine) ; Elizabeth (Elspet, Isobel, Bessie) ; Ellen (Elinor, Helen) ; Joan (Jane, Janet, Jonet) ”

“ The Devil’s names include Abiron, Antecessor, Aspic, Barrebon, Black John, Blackman, Christsunday, Crebas, Daniel the Prophet, Helen Mcbrune, Hou, Iupin, Janicot, Klareanough, Jean Mullin, Leonard, Mamillion, Orthon, Quillet, Robin, Sathan, Simon, Thom Reid, Traisnesac, Tramesabot, Walliman, and William Simpson. ”
