[Games] Nyx' Choose-Your-Own-Adventure KUY CAF - Round 2
Ok, the rules are pretty simple, I'll be providing two or more options, and you follow the "adventure" that suits you best. Each "adventure" will have it's own set of naming rules for that round. Stories are optional, but always enjoyed and encouraged :) Ages are optional, and you keep track of them yourself. I'll provide links to each previous round, so you can quickly find your family.Note: Just because your chose Adventure # in one round doesn't mean that you are stuck with that # for every other round. Each round you can chose your own adventure (hence, the name).Signups: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3913184&board=game

Just a year after the first birth, the couple is welcoming their second (or third) arrival, a daughter! With all that has been going on, the couple is very busy and hasn't had time to accomplish much beyond surviving day-to-day.

DS: His FN is "exotic-light" (for ideas, try http://nameberry.com/blog/2009/10/07/exotic-lite-boys-edition/ - but names aren't limited to those found here). His MN is an antique/vintage name that may be gaining popularity.Adventure 3:
Being a parent (and maybe holding down a job) was harder then the couple thought it would be. For many years they considered their child(ren) an/their only child(ren). However, almost 5 years later and they finally feel like they have their feet back under them and want another child. Wouldn't you know it, they have twins!
DS/DS: Both FNs should be themed, but need not be matchy unless you want (ex. Both FNs could have meanings related to "stone", both FNs could be of the same origin, both FNs could come from Shakespearian plays, both FNs could be anagrams of each other, or both FNs could end in "son" or "den"). Both MNs are your choice.

Your couple grew up as next door neighbors. As children, they were often seen running around one house or the other. It's no surprise that they became a couple.The couple finished high school, and then finished college. They've gotten good jobs and are pretty much settling into life. Their first daughter was a surprise, but very welcomed.Being a parent (and maybe holding down a job) was harder then the couple thought it would be.

Kalena has been begging Alan to take time off work so they can visit her family in Hawaii, but his job is very demanding and he doesn't have time for much else. Kalena loves being a mother to her son and is so much happier in their home with him there as well, but she hardly ever gets to leave the house because she doesn't speak much english and she can't drive. She now has a little more excitement, however because they just welcomed their second child, a tiny little girl that they named Konani Olivia Emmerson!

DD: Evangeline Katherina "Evie"
DS/DS: Milo Owen / Thomas SamuelAdventure 3 this time...Life has been extremely hectic for the Alban family for the last few years. Sunny finished her degree and took a job teaching English at a local high school. Within two years she also took over the school newspaper and became co-sponser of the drama club. Jamie was continueing his career as a social worker--a job that is inherantly hectic. Juggling these jobs with the demands of raising a toddler made them both agree that, for the time being at least, their faimily was complete. They were perfectly happy with Evie, who was as sweet and loving and outgoing as a parent could wish.Five years passed, however, and things were getting easier and easier. Evie was in school and loving it, and Sunny and Jamie had both been at their jobs long whough that they had their juggling routines down pat. Both also got raises. With things settling down, they talked and decided that the time was right for another baby. Only a few weeks after Sunny went off birth control she got pregnant, and nine months later she gave birth to twin boys! They had been astounded and a little worried when they found out they were having twins--Evie had ben hard enough by herself--but Evie herself was overjoyed. She couldn't stop talking about getting two little brothers. She even helped name them in a way; she recently become obsessed with cats, and during the summer while Sunny was off and hanging out with Evie, she found two names she loved in some of the cat movies Evie wanted to watch.

Max and Summer had there hands full with Em & Eve when they found out they were expectig they were both excited and nervous. Summer had to explain her growing belly and that they would be having a little brother. Max thought things went over quite well and both Emmett and Everly seemed at ease with the birth of Killian. Summer thought that because Emmett and Everly already shared all the attention adding one more was not a big deal for them. Max has taken the twins out for special dad trips so that mom and baby can sleep. Killian has proven to be a fairly easy baby and sleeping on a great schedule. Killian looks most like Summer with his soft blonde peach fuz while Emmett and Everly both share moms green eyes Killian has dads blue.

+++++Erin found being the mother of rowdy twins such as Day and Lizzie hard. She thought they'd be the only children in their family. But when Day and Lizzie were almost four, Erin told Al that she was ready to add more children to their family. Ninth months after, Day and Lizzie got twin brothers! Erin and Al just had to laugh at the fact that they once again had twins. To name their boys, Erin decided to go with historical first names for both of them since that is what she was studying in college. The middle names are after herself (Aaron) and Al (Benedict).

She and Art started trying for another child, and within three months, they were expecting. Art figured that adding another child to the family wouldn't be too difficult--after all, Maggie is a delightful little girl, even if she does take up a lot of his and Sadie's time together. When Sadie found out that she was having twins, Art was shocked. The McCarthy twins were born about a month and a half early, and were able to go home after five weeks in the hospital. Maggie loves her new little brothers, Matt and Micah, and they seem to like her too.

Your couple never met until he moved into the neighborhood in high school. At first, they butted heads because she felt that he was too popular and good looking to have anything else to offer. The final month of school changed all of that, and they fell madly in love with each other.Round 1:

Though Liz loved her daughter dearly, it was very stressful to juggle raising a child and finishing her PhD, and she and Jack hold off on having more children indefinitely. After she finally finishes her dissertation and begins working as an adjunct professor at a nearby college, Liz is very content with her life and considers only having one child. However, soon her biological clock begins to tick again--it seems as if *everyone* at work was having babies--and she and Jack start trying for another baby. Jack and Liz are shocked when they find out they're expecting twins, and are excited when they find out they're having identical twin boys. Although Callie is a little sad to not have a sister, she is very maternal towards James and Liam (named after Liz's two favorite writers, James Joyce and William Faulkner, and the two characters from her favorite Shakespeare play, A Midsummer Night's Dream).

DD: Clair Jayden Bowen (nb)It has been a year since April was born, and now the family is introduced with the newest member of their family: little Clair Jayden. Mary even quits her job so that she can raise her two daughters on her own, instead of sending them away to a costly babysitter every day. Jesse loves April and Clair, but is rather disappointed that he does not have a son yet. To help ease him of his pain, Mary offered to give Clair a masculine name, which is why Clair Jayden is named what she is. Mary is a bit worried about another baby, since April was a total fail, but hopes that she will learn from her past mistakes.
