Johan Virck(?) Sund __? Sunder
Parents:
Johan Gerd Sund ___? Sunder, Elisabeth Karhof(?), marital spouses
Sponsors:
Johan Henrich Rüter, Maria Karhof
Johan Virck(?) Karhof, witness
Comments:
I am not sure about the second name of the child. It seems to be the same as that of the witness Johan Virck(?) Karhof. There are several other records on this page where this name appears.
Also the word/name between "Sund" and "Sunder" is unclear to me.

If the V is a D, the Thode Dictionary gives Dirck as a form of the masculine given name Dietrich.

I agree with @wab1218 .

Sive is Latin for "or", so the last name is Sund or Sunder. See https://geogen.stoepel.net/ for geographical distribution of the surnames.

Thank you both! Now that I see it here, I've seen the "Sive" on a couple other birth records and was wondering what it was. I'll have to go back and look again. Thanks again!
