Help[Games] Nyx' Choose-Your-Own-Adventure KUY CAF - Round 4
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 will not be killing off any family members in this game, but you may chose to do so yourself. I'll provide links to each previous round, so you can quickly find your family. You can chose to sign up and join at any time, just work your way to the current round.
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).

Round 1: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3929172&board=game
Round 2: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3931093&board=game
Round 3: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3931966&board=game
Note: This is the FINAL round for first generation children. If you are not satisfied with the number of family members, please go to rounds 2/3 and edit additional family members into your family.
Your couple may chose to have as many children as feasible on any particular round, or chose to stay as they are for the round. If you want to, you may chose to change any DS/DD to an AS/AD. The naming rules still apply, and as much of the story as you can make work.
Please add 6 years to the ages of your current family
Adventure 1:
Your DS is very inquisitive and loves the sciences. He either has his nose in a book, is watching program about something science-related, or is doing some sort of research/experiment on his own. He's a very smart boy and got promoted to the first grade within weeks of Kindergarten starting. There is already talk of whether it would be good for him to be promoted to second grade or if they should wait because he is so young.
DS: _____ _____ _____ (5)
His FN/MN1 comes from the following page: http://nameberry.com/blog/2010/09/17/antiquarian-names-colonial-craftsmen-names/. MN2 honors either mom or dad.
Adventure 2:
You could almost swear that your daughter is a reincarnated spirit of some free-spirited hippie. She loves to be out in the garden, and she loves to watch the bugs and birds, and she just generally loves seeing and being in nature. Shoes just get in her feet's way of being on the ground, and clothes must be "as bright and colorful as a flower" in her opinion.
DD: _____ _____ (4)
Her FN is Hawaiian (here is an additional reference http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Hawaiian_given_names), and her MN is a nature word-name.
Adventure 3:
Twins! (Again?) These two make quite the pair. The boy is bigger then his sister, but the sister is most definitely the leader of this duo. She drags her brother around and makes sure that he doesn't miss out when he is feeling shy. At times, the brother gets resentful of his sister's outgoing nature, but for the most part he loves his sister a ton.
DS/DD: _____ *el _____ / _____ *le _____ (3)
DS's FN is either equally unisex (used approximately for the same number of girls as boys) or a unisex name that is generally thought more feminine by today's standard, and his MN1 ends in "EL", and MN2 is a slightly quirky/unusual name (examples can be found here http://nameberry.com/list/333/Offbeat-Names). DD's FN is a masculine name that has never been listed on the SSA list as a feminine name, and her MN ends in "LE", and MN2 is a slightly quirky/unusual name (examples can be found here http://nameberry.com/list/333/Offbeat-Names). (Please note, the final letters in the MN are reversed in the two names.)
Adventure 4:
This little guy/gal was named for your two best friends. S/he's a quite kid, and hasn't even started talking yet. However, you are not worried because you can see that there is no problem other then his/her older siblings always speaking for him and such.
D?: _____ _____ (2)
You can chose the gender. His/her FN/MN is a variation/related name of Alexander/James/John/Henry/Charles/George.
Adventure 5:
You had the perfect name picked out while you were pregnant with this little guy. However, when you held him in your arms for the first time, you realized that it was wrong. Your friends and family couldn't believe it when you came home and told them his name. But now everybody agrees that it suits him to a T and the other was totally wrong. While this name was completely outside of your style, the name is perfect and you are glad that you listened to your gut.
DS: _____ _____ (1)
His FN comes from the following list: http://nameberry.com/userlist/view/637?page=1, and his MN is "cowboy" (here are some ideas: http://nameberry.com/nametalk/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=11393&start=0&hilit=TEX&sid=d05cf0455d2913bb9deb7905f207c085).
Adventure 6:
This little girl is sure to be a favorite among her older siblings. This is your last child, for sure! Both the DW and DH have gotten themselves fixed and there will be no opps or mistakes. Your family is perfect the way it is, and you couldn't be happier!
DD: _____ *z* [*q* OR *x*] (nb)
Her FN is generally thought of as a masculine nickname (here are some ideas: http://nameberry.com/blog/2010/03/25/charlie-sam-go-pink-boyish-nickname-names-for-girls/), her MN1 contains a "Z", and her MN2 contains either a "Q" OR a "X".
Please include 3 naming rules that you would like to see used in future rounds. That could be anything from "Use a timeless classic" or "Use a Qreeaytev spelling" to "Starts with 'W'" or is from a favorite list of yours (please include a link to the list if you do this).
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).
