We do have new names written down in glory Revelation 2:17 part three

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches.
To him who overcomes, I will give some of the hidden manna.  I will also
give him a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to him
who receives it.  Revelation 2:17

During  the second half of the Great Tribulation lasting 42 months or 3 1/2
years:  All of the inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast--all whose
names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that
was slain from the creation of the world.  Revelation 13:8

When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the alter, the souls of those 
who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they 
had maintained.  They called out in a loud voice," How long, Sovereign
Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and
avenge our blood?" Than each of them was given a white robe, and 
they were told to wait a little while longer, until the number of their 
fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been
was completed.  Revelation 6: 9-11.

Then I (the Apostle John) heard the number of all of those who had been
sealed:  144,000 from the twelve tribes of Israel. (That had been sealed by
the holy angels of God.)  There were 12,000 a piece of the twelve tribes:

Judah, Reuben, Gad, Asher, Naphtali, Manasseh, Simeon, Levi, Issachar,
Zebulun. Joseph and Benjamin.) Revelation 7: 1-8.  

Absent from the list: were the tribes of Dan and Ephraim, maybe because
those tribes will not have the required number of virgin male Jews to be
numbered?  According to the former Pastor of Calvary Baptist Church, 
Rex Furman. It does not mean that the anti-christ will come from the 
tribe of Dan, represented by a serpent!

After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one
could count, from every nation, tribe, people and tongue, standing before
the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and
were holding palm branches in their hands.  And they cried in a loud voice:

"Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.  All
the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the
four living creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne and
worshiped God saying,"Amen!"  Praise and Glory and wisdom and thanks
and honor and power and strength be to our God forever and ever Amen!"
Revelation 7:9-12
