Epaenetus

Commendable, a Christian at Rome to whom Paul sent his salutation (Rom. 16:5). He is spoken of as “the first fruits of Achaia” (R.V., “of Asia”, i.e., of proconsular Asia, which is probably the correct reading). As being the first convert in that region, he was peculiarly dear to the apostle. He calls him his “well beloved.”

EPAEN'ETUS (praised), one whom Paul in Rom 16:5 called his "well-beloved," and "the first fruits of Achaia" — better, "of Asia" — unto Christ.
