Ageneral description of name-giving and a comprehensive inventory of persons and names in the early years of the Portuguese-occupied archipelago of Madeira, plus anthroponymic statistics. After its discovery in 1418, the uninhabited archipelago became a Portuguese settlement. Given its high strategic and economic significance (Age of Discovery; sugar) Madeira quickly attracted traders and settlers from all over Europe.
