This proper name (Romans 16:5) is found in an imprecatory tablet from Corcyra, Syll 808.4 : cf. the list of names from Hermopolis Magna Preisigke 599.150 (Ptol.) Ἐπαίνετος Θόαντος, and the fem. in Michel 1503 D. i. 29 (ii/i B.C.) Ἐ ]παινέτη Ἀριστοβούλου. For the adj., apparently in an active sense, cf. the rhetorical fragment PSI I. 85.4 (iii/A.D.) ἀπομνημόνευμα σύντομον ἐπὶ προσώπου τινὸς ἐπενετόν (l. ἐπαινετόν), ";a concise laudatory memoir regarding some person"; : see further s.v. ἀπομνημόνευμα.
