I am looking for the birth of Nathaniel HOPEWELL 1695. I need to know who his parents were as there is some discrepancy! ???

FS has two entries for Nathaniel Hopewells, baptised 1695

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FWXM-3P2

and

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FWX8-R9Y

Do either/both of them seem likely to be the one you're after?

Why not request a copy of the images from FS to see if that makes the situation any clearer ?

You say there's a discrepancy with parents.  What choices of parental names do you have?

The parents were John and Christian which are the names given in both cases to the parents so I guess one of them is correct.

The clue is in the source given by familysearch: RG4 - 8, the non-conformist registers. BMD registers has both entries, RG 6 1606 and RG6 1368. Unfortunately detail is pay per view.

National Archive catalogue identifies both as Quaker Quarterly meetings Derbyshire & Nottinghamshire

Thanks for all info. Does this mean that Nathaniel and parents were actually Quakers? Nathaniel actually went out to America and died there.

Yes - at least at the time of the baptism.  And since the data appears to be 2 different copies of the same basic information, that with the commonality of parents strongly suggests only one person.  To confirm date, or understand why 2 different dates are recorded, you'll need to look at the original.
