Like a number of other baptism records in this parish 1694-1696, the baptism of Nils Nilsen (last record in screenshot) indicates who Nils was named after, but I cannot decide for certain whether the last word is "bruder". Please help.

26 April. Jurgen Nllsen Schmidt.

Sohn Nils. nach s.[ein?] [bruder?]

    Yes, I agree. The line is Nils. nach s[einem] bruder. The question is who seinem (his) refers to; most likely the father. So the child seems to be named after his uncle.
