From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  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."
