The Winthrop Family

---

DH: James Charles Winthrop [32]
DW: Eugenie Felipa-Maria (née Palomo) Winthrop [29]

---

DS/DD: Oliver Carlos Jude Winthrop / Evie Maria Rose Winthrop [9] ►RowenaRavenclaw / jessica_p◄
DS: Alfie Rafael Clement Winthrop [5] ►Ninor◄
DS: Joshua Manuel Dermot Winthrop [4] ►jessica_p◄
DD/DD: _____ _____ _____ Winthrop / _____ _____ _____ Winthrop [nb]

---

James and Eugenie decided that they would have one more child... and ended up with twin girls! Eugenie has decided that a half-dozen children is enough, and James got fixed.

---

James and Eugenie want both FNs to be a popular/trendy British names that do NOT sound alike/start with the same letter-sound/end with the same sound/etc. Their MN#1 should honor Eugenie's Spanish/Portuguese heritage and their MN#2 needs to be a catholic saint's name.

The Resnik Family

---

DW: Elizabeth "Tibby" Veronica Resnik [30]
DH: Tobias "Toby" Alonzo (née Farkas) Resnik [29]

---

DS: Theodore "Ted" Julian Resnik [8] ►La Reina◄
DS: Laurence "Ren" Frederick Resnik [6] ►Wandering Moon◄
DD: Rosemary "Mar" Ursula Resnik [4] ►Ninor◄
DD: _____ _____ Resnik [2]
DS: _____ _____ Resnik [nb]

---

Life's been good for Tibby and Toby. Their family is growing, and Toby couldn't be happier. In the past 4 years they've had two new additions to their family.

---

For their DD they want to use a timeless classic as a FN with a fun, 3-letter nickname. Her MN is a classic, but would be considered nearly unique for this day-and-age, and might be found on the following lists: http://nameberry.com/list/248/Old-Lady-Names or http://nameberry.com/list/249/Names-No-Girl-May-Be-Cool-Enough-For .

---

For their DS they want to use what might be considered an outdated FN. They also want his FN to have either a 3-letter nickname or a 1-syllable nickname. His MN is a classic, but would be considered nearly unique for this day-and-age, and can be found on the following list: http://nameberry.com/list/192/Clunky-but-Cool-Names-for-Boys

The Seidel/Barton Family

---

DECEASED: Rylan Finn Seidel [Deceased @24]
DWidow: Cherish "Cherry" Rebecca (née Barton) Seidel [27]
Dbf: _____ _____ Segal [30]

---

DS: _____ _____ Segal [11]

---

DS: Barton Finnegan Seidel [11] ►ghost◄
DD: Arabella Madison Seidel [5] ►RowenaRavenclaw◄
DD/DD: Ryanna Adrianne Seidel / Mallory Annika Seldel [3] ►NamesAreAwesome / Wandering Moon◄

---

After 2 years of mourning and trying to keep her feet underneath her and the families head above water, Cherry has finally found solid ground again. This was greatly helped by a new guy in her life, whom she met while picking up her oldest from school. It turns out that he has a son in the same grade as Barton. The two were becoming best friends quickly, even though they'd only known each other a few weeks. The Segal family moved to Cherry's town after the death of the wife/mom. Cherry and Mr. Segal have a lot in common, but they are taking things slow.

---

Mr. Segal's FN is a quirky name and can be found on the following page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_futurologists (feel free to use proper names or surnames). His MN is 4 syllables long.

---

Mr. Segal's son's FN/MN come from the following pages: http://nameberry.com/blog/cool-unusual-boys-names-the-best-100 or http://nameberry.com/blog/antiquarian-names-colonial-craftsmen-names .

The Stone Family

---

DH: Rufus Sebastian Stone [49]
DW: Elodie Violet (née Miles) Stone [28]

---

DD: Eleonora Verity Stone [6] ►Wandering Moon◄
DD: Ginevra Sparrow Stone [5] ►La Reina◄
DD: Isolda Lavender Stone [3] ►jessica_p◄
DS/DS/DS: Byron Hawk Stone / Whittaker Pier Stone / Huxley Berlin Stone [2] ►ghost / molly / Bea◄
AD: _____ _____ Stone [1]

---

DMistress: Scarlett Rose Masson [21] ►K.B.◄
DS: _____ _____ _____ _____ Masson [nb]

---

Rufus is thrilled, he's got three sons! Elodie is thrilled, she's never going to give birth to another child. She's been working hard, trying to get her pre-pregnancy body back (after 6 kids, however, it's never going to be the same). Elodie has hired 3 full-time nannies - two work together during the day and one stays the night. The kids are happy and spoiled. Both Elodie and Rufus adore them and love spending quality time with them (so long as one or more nannies is along to make sure they behave and do all of the dirty work!).

---

Scarlett, however, isn't too happy. Somehow she ended up pregnant (Rufus was tampering with her birth control pills also, just because it amused him to do so). She refused to find out what the gender of the child was (she was around when Rufus was so mad at Elodie for not having a son), and talked Rufus into paying to get her tubes tied after this pregnancy... no matter what. (Rufus agreed more because he's disappointed with his aging wife's body).

---

Scarlett and Rufus were thrilled to find out that they had a son, but Elodie was jealous and a little worried. Scarlett convinced Rufus to allow her son to keep her last name (he didn't need the scandal down the road) and to set up a generous trust fund for his son, which she would, of course, manage. Truthfully, Scarlett didn't envy Elodie anything and in no way wanted to marry "Old-Man Rufus" (as she thought of him). Like Elodie, Scarlett did want to get some of his money, and this child was a perfect way to do so without any further ties to him.

---

Elodie, however, had no clue how Scarlett felt as she felt it best to pretend that she didn't exist. When it became apparent that Rufus was doting on his newest son, Elodie felt the need to try and even the balance. She went down to Hatti and adopted an infant girl. At first, she was just doing this as a means to bring Rufus' attention back to his "own" family. However, she truly fell in love with this dark eyed and solemn little girl. Eleonora, Ginevra, and even Isolda dote upon their new sister.

---

DS Masson's FN is "pretentious" and "stuffy". Scarlett felt the need to seem intelligent and therefore gave her son 3 MNs, all of which are from what might be considered a "classical education" (think ancient names, mythological names, literary names, and very vintage names/surnames).

---

(ETA) AD Stone's FN is of French origins and her MN is a French word.
