'Oceanus Hopkins' (1620 – c. 1627) was the first of two children born on the ''Mayflower.'' He was born to Stephen Hopkins and his wife, Elizabeth, sometime between the boarding and departure dates of September 6 and November 9, 1620. He did not survive long, and was dead before the 1627 Division of Land. Oceanus Hopkins was named so because he was born in a ship in the Atlantic Ocean and the Latin word for the ocean is Oceanus.
