Help[Games] Molly's NTNB Round 1
Here's hoping there's enough enthusiasm to sustain another of these! Have fun!
The Miller Family
DH: Thomas Edward “Tom” (25)
DW: Jessica Marie “Jess” (22)
DS:
Jess and Tom are a conservative Christian couple from Delaware. Jess is a name nerd with slightly pretentious taste.
Their son’s FN should be from the Top 1000, something along the lines of board-popular names like Sebastian, Oscar, and August.
His MN should be a little-used Biblical name.

The Katz-Shornstein Family
DW: Melinda Valerie (39)
DW: Deborah Ruth “Deb” (46)
DS:
Deb and Melinda are observant Reform Jews live on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. They are awaiting the birth of their first child, who Melinda is carrying—the biological father is a Jewish friend of theirs.
Their son’s FN should be from the Hebrew Bible (the Old Testament).
His MN should be a Hebrew name—preferably a name with only a Hebrew version, NOT a Hebrew version of a Biblical name.

The Rush Family
SO: Kingsley Christopher “King” Rush (28)
SO: Rose Beatrice Delaunay (26)
DD:
Rose and King are a couple of artists who bum around between friends’ studios in Berlin, L.A., and Brooklyn.
They love the fact that both of their names are words, and that King’s last name is a word, and they’d like to pass on the tradition to their daughter. They have extremely esoteric taste—below is a list of ideas they’ve come up. For their daughter, pick TWO names from this list, and TWO OR MORE that you think would fit their style (in total, she should have ONE FN and THREE OR MORE MNs).
Ideas: Catacomb, Trance, Intifada, Palace, Effigy, Glacier, Crash, Swiftness, Jellybean

The Maldonado Family
DH: Adrián Josué (30)
DW: Yakira Denisse (29)
DD:
Adrián and Yakira are Venezuelan immigrants who have been working in New Jersey for the past few years, and have finally saved up enough money to start a family.
Their daughter’s FN and MN should be distinctly Hispanic (i.e. Yamilet, Lucero, Anahí), but not traditional Spanish names (i.e. María, Isabel, Paulina). (Tip: Check for names in the Top 1000 that are NOT on BtN’s list of Spanish names).
= = = = =
The Courbet Family
DH: Yann Robert (35)
DW: Claire-Angèle (35)
DS:
Yann and Claire are French citizens currently living in the San Francisco Bay Area, where they both teach in a bilingual school.
Their son’s FN should be in the French Top 100, and should be easy for English-speakers to pronounce.
His MN should be French.

The Deckelman Family
DH: Terry Carl “T.C.” (27)
DW: Leana Violet (28)
DS:
T.C. and Leana are from the hills of Kentucky, where they lead the same simple lifestyle their parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents did. They love to hunt, but are worried that since the election of President Obama, their Second Amendment rights are in jeopardy.
Their son’s FN should somehow be related to guns.
His MN should be a nature name, but preferably something rugged (i.e. Ridge) rather than something prissy (i.e. Ocean).
