Help[Games] Nyx' NTNB in the year 2114 - Round 5
This is a typical NTNB, except that the year is now 2114 and the trends are slightly different. Below is an example of 2114 trends in baby names to help out with each family.
In general, parents are finally fed up with the unique-word-name trend. However, there are some word-names that have become so commonplace as to seem usual/typical/normal/okay. Names that were popular in the early 1900s became the standard set for the parents of this generation. The most popular names (the ones that came back early and strong) from the 1900's are currently the least trendy. However, the names that had a slower buildup or just didn't see as much use are still considered fair game. Names that were popular in the 1940's/1950's/1960's are the current favorites and one of the most popular trends. Other current trends include unique nicknames as first names, unusual occupational names, and a return to names from or about medieval times. Finally, the most obnoxious trend (to many name-lovers at least) is giving girls names that were popular boys names in the 1940's/1950's/1960's.

The Jones Family
DH: Durward Elden Jones
DW: "Emmy" Emblem Eloise (née Labelle) Jones
DD: "Trixie" Patricia Eleanor Sailor Jones [NurseMom75]
DS: "Archie" Architect Emmanuel Ralph Jones [Ninor]
DD/DS: "Vivi" Sylvia Ever Songlark Jones / "Fort" Forester Eagle Donald Jones [ghost / AnnaMarie]
DD: "Ginger" Virginia Ethel Piper Jones [AnnaMarie]
The Jones family is currently complete. Trixie is 13 and Ginger is 2. For now, this family is done. We may revisit them in or after the year 2117. A fun little note: Fort got his nickname when big brother Archie couldn't properly pronounce Forester and started calling him Fort.

The Davis Family
DH: "Cord" Corduroy Hoyt Davis
DW: Rosalina Mollie (née O'Reilly) Davis
DS: Abbott Letholdus Davis [Loki]
DD: Kathleen Iseut Davis [AnnaMarie]
DD: Brenda Vidia Davis [miakendall1075]
DS: Percival Gary Davis [ghost]
DS: _____ _____ Davis
Cord and Rosalina are expecting (another) son. They would like his FN to be a name that was popular-heard in the 1940's/1950's/1960's, but declined in use since then. His MN should should be related to medieval times OR be something related to elves/sprites/magic/etc. OR you can switch the FN and MN if you prefer.
The Lobo Family
DH: Otis Steven Lobo
exW: Heather-Hadley Merche Maradona-Lobo
DW: "Katie" Catherine Emily (née Noel) Lobo [Edith Therese]
DS/DD: Dick Alexander Maradona Lobo / Troy Angela Maradona Lobo [Aderyn Azula / JN316]
DS: Buzz Christopher Maradona Lobo [Aderyn Azula]
DD: Dale Audrey Maradona Lobo [NurseMom75]
DD: Gwen Marilyn Noel Lobo [Loki]
DD: _____ _____ Noel Lobo
Katie and Otis are once again expecting a daughter. This time Katie would like a two-syllable FN that is 3-4 letters and is comfortably within style at the moment, but not wildly popular or taking any of the styles to the extreme. Otis is once again choosing the MN (popular in the 1930's/1940's/1950's - still pretty, timeless and classic and feminine). Oh, and Otis is taking special care that the MN does NOT start with "A", "C", or "M".
The Crocetti Family
DH: Giovanni Duke Crocetti [Aderyn Azula]
DW: Heather-Hadley Merche (née Maradona) Crocetti
DS: Nico Slade Crocetti [JN316]
DD: _____ _____ Crocetti
DW: _____ _____ (née Lemaire) Crocetti
DD: _____ _____ Crocetti
Okay, the Crocetti family just got too big to be considered a subset of the Lobo family, so they are officially their own category now.
Giovanni and Heather-Hadley are still together and everything is still working for them. In fact, Heather-Hadley is now expecting a baby girl. Giovanni is thrilled, and is even letting Heather-Hadley help name her. He's decided that Heather-Hadley can chose a feminine diminutive of Spanish origin for their DD's FN (so long as he approves of the name). Giovanni is choosing the MN, which will be a word-name that is either a nickname or a term of endearment.
In the meantime, Giovanni has chosen to take a second wife (yep, polygamy was legalized so long as the number of "spouses" is less then 5 and no harm comes to anybody within the household). His second-wife's FN is French and her MN is British. They are also having a daughter. Giovanni wishes that his first born could have been a son, but isn't really disappointed (this way his daughter's will be almost as close as twins). He has chosen a non-typical floral name for her FN (ie: NOT Rose or Lily or such) and a MN that is a word-name that he considered "girly".
