[Games] Compromise Congrats Game Round One
Ok so we'll start round one. This round you will get your first child(ren) which I have randomly generated. You'll also need to decide where you'll be setting up home (hence why I have left the locations blank for now).And of course the best part what you are going to call your bundle of joy?

So, we have Jennifer living in L.A. and Lucas in San Diego. I think it makes sense to have them stay in So. Cal. Any suggestions for where, exactly? If not one or the other, somewhere in between, perhaps (i.e. Fallbrook, Valley Center)...I'm good with whatever city/town :)
As for names, I like a lot, so I'll just throw some out there and you can do the same. Then we'll see if we have any overlaps or similarities. (* are top 10)
Addison, Alexandra, Ángela, Ariella*, Audrey*, Ava, Brooklyn, Carrie, Cecilia, Courteney, Cristina, Dahlia, Daniela, Elisabeth*, Ella, Faith, Gabriela, Grace, Iris, Isabella, Jaclyn, Janna, Jasmine, Jocelyn, Julia*, Kate*, Katherine/Kathryn, Kyla, Lacie, Laine, Liliana, Lillian, Madelyn, Marin*, Mary, Megan, Michaela, Michelle, Monica, Natalia, Nathalie, Olivia*, Payton, Rachel, Raquel, Reese, Rose (MN only), Sadie, Samantha, Sara, Savannah*, Scarlett, Sofia*, Sonya*, Stella, Victoria, Zoe

All right, I'm pretty good with any location, I like the idea of a smaller town.
Names, all right.....
Abigail, Adalia, Adelaide, Alexandria, Alyssa, Amelia, Anastasia, Araminta, Arwen, Brenna, Brianna, Brielle, Brigid, Brooklyn, Callie, Calliope, Caryn, Cassidy, Cathrine, Cosima, Deryn, Diana, Elissa, Elizabeth, Eloise, Elspeth, Emmalyn, Erin, Eve, Hannah, Holly, Jade, Jennifer, Jessamine, Jessica, Katelyn, Katie, Kayla, Kora, Kristin, Laura, Leia, Lillian, Loretta, Lucie/Lucy, Luna, Mae, Maia, Marissa, Mary, Meg, Mellie, Natalie, Nora, Orianna, Penny, Phina, Rachel, Rayna, Rebecca, Rosa, Rosalind, Rowena, Ruth, Sara, Sereaphina, Sky, Susan, Tera, Tiffany, Veronica, Victoria, Violet, Winnifred, Zoe

I apologize in advance for the long post.
Valley Center is pretty small for So. Cal & about 45 minutes from San Diego.
From your list of names, I like:
Alexandria - prefer Alexandra
Brielle
Brooklyn
Cathrine - like the name but only with a 'K' spelling
Elizabeth - prefer sp. Elisabeth
Hannah
Jade
Jennifer
Katelyn - prefer sp. Kaitlyn
Kayla - prefer Michaela
Kristin - prefer sp. Kristen
Laura
Lillian
Lucy
Mary
Natalie - prefer sp. Nathalie
Rachel
Rayna - prefer sp. Reina/Raina
Rebecca
Sara
Sky - prefer sp. Skye
Victoria
Zoe
So, if we narrow down to names in common, we have Brooklyn, Elizabeth, Lillian, Mary, Natalie, Rachel, Sara, Victoria & Zoe.
Just throwing out some combinations. Feel free to do the same :)
Zoe Victoria
Zoe Elizabeth
Brooklyn Mary
Brooklyn Sara
Sara Natalie
Sara Lillian
Mary Brooklyn
Mary Elizabeth
Of course, we can always compromise & go with a first name we have in common & a middle name from one list or the other, and change it up next round. And do you want sibling names to go together or is it okay that they don't (I'm not one who really ever thinks they have to). Also, one middle name or two?

I think Valley Center is a pretty good place.
I like the idea of doing one first name in common and a middle name from one or the other. I don't care if sibling names go together. I don't really care with middle names, I usually prefer one though.
Okay, combos.
I like Mary Elizabeth a lot more than the others, so maybe we could go with that? I do like several names from your list:
Addison, Ariella, Ava, Cecelia, Dahlia, Ella, Faith, Grace, Iris, Isabella, Julia, Kate, Kyla, Lacie, Laine, Megan, Michelle, Monica, Natalia, Nathalie, Rachel, Rose, Samantha, Scarlett, & Sofia.
If you don't mind, I'm gonna make some combos from those.
Elisabeth Dahlia
Elisabeth Cecelia
Elisabeth Grace
Elisabeth Rose
Mary Rose
Mary Laine
Mary Michelle
Natalie Grace
Natalie Sofia
Brooklyn Ariela
Brooklyn Michelle
Broklyn Natalia
Also, Megan Michelle.

Mary Elisabeth/Elizabeth is nice, although the Elisabeth combos you created are lovely. I'd almost prefer to save Elisabeth as a FN for later.
Some other Mary combos...
Mary Sofia
Mary Scarlett
Mary Victoria
Mary Alexandra
Mary Natalia
Or Elisabeth Mary (which I really like too).
Some other Mary combos...
Mary Sofia
Mary Scarlett
Mary Victoria

I think it's a good idea to save Elizabeth/Elisabeth.
May Victoria is my favortie Mary combo.

I'm good with that. I think Mary Victoria is very pretty. Do we want to finalize it?

Awesome! I had my namebank set to private but I've set it back to public now if you'd like to have a browse.
Of your names I love: Noah, Alexander, William, Leo, Zachariah and Eli/ Willow, Ariana, Isobel and Lily
I like: Theodore, Isaac, Oliver, Henry and James/ Alice
My favourite names are Elijah, August, Jack, Thomas, Asher, Riley, Alexander, Archer, Leo, Micah and Thatcher/ Ariana, Willow, Lilia, India/Indie, Alix, Rose, Zoe, Amalia, Chiara, Cleo, Aurora, Jade, Iris, Sinead, Holly, Scarlett, Rylie, Stephanie and Hazel.
So I think Ariana, Willow, Lily, Leo, Alexander, Zachariah and William are the big winners in this =P I'm happy with that so far! Would you be willing to add Elijah "Eli" to that? What would be your picks for our twins? =)

Elijah nn Eli is fine.
From your list I love:
Jack (especially Jackson "Jack") Riley Alexander Leo / Aurora Scarlett
And I like:
August Thomas Asher Micah / Indie (as a nickname) Rose
I don't like Amalia, but I like/love Amelia, and Amelie.
From the boys names we both agree on, my pick would be either Noah, Alexander or William. I'm a little more unsure about the girls. Right now I'm leaning towards Willow, but I'm open for other suggestions. What about you?

Okay so together we love: Noah, Alexander, William, Leo, Zachariah, Elijah "Eli", Jack, James and Riley/ Willow, Ariana, Isobel, Lily, Aurora, Scarlett and Amelia/Amelie
And we like (so MNs more so than FNs?): Theodore, Isaac, Oliver, Henry, August, Thomas, Asher and Micah/ Alice, Indie (as a nickname) and Rose
I'm not much of a fan of Jackson but seeing as it's a compromise congrats, how much do you prefer Jackson? I'm quite happy to use Amelia or Amelie, I've added both names in our main list.
My two favourite girls' names in the world are Ariana and Willow so either of those are fine by me. I like all three of those boys' names a lot but I'm leaning towards Alexander. WDYT?
Some combos for Willow and Alexander:
Willow Scarlett
Willow Amelia
Willow Alice
Willow Isobel
Alexander William
Alexander Riley
Alexander Henry
Alexander Thomas

Willow and Alexander sounds great to me.
From your combos I especially like Willow Amelia, Willow Isobel, Alexander Riley and Alexander Thomas. I'm not entirely sure about Alexander Thomas, but if you really love that we can use it.
While I'm fine with those combos, here are some other suggestions:
Willow Ariana
Willow Rose
Alexander Eli
Alexander James
Alexander Isaac

Willow Rose
Alexander Eli
Alexander James
Alexander Isaac
I like all of your combos but I would like to use Ariana and Elijah "Eli" as FNs. If you don't like them enough to use them as FNs though, they make great MNs =) And as much as I love Rose and James, they don't have much substance as MNs, they're very "filler" I guess.
So that leaves us with:
Willow Amelia
Willow Isobel
Willow Ariana (if you don't think we'll use Ariana as a FN)
Alexander Riley
Alexander Isaac
Alexander Eli (if you don't think we'll use Elijah as a FN)
WDYT? I like them all =)

I hate myself. I wrote a long response but accidentally deleted it. Shorter version:
I prefer Alexander as the FN, and would be fine with using either Alexander Eli, Alexander Isaac or Alexander Thomas. You can pick which one :)
I love both Ariana and Willow, and either one is fine with me as the FN. I think we should save the other one as a future FN. My favorite combos are Willow Isobel and Ariana Lily or Ariana Scarlett.

I know how you feel, I typed my last response 3 times before it posted and I didn't even make it make sense! When I said I like Ariana and Elijah as FNs, I meant for later children. I think that was more obvious in my first 2 attempts though =) but I hope I've cleared that up.
So I think it's Willow Isobel for our girl =)
Do you think we'll use Elijah on a future boy? If so, I think our Alexander may be Alexander Isaac =)

I'm 50/50 about using Elijah as a FN. But maybe we should go with Willow Isobel and Alexander Isaac for these twins, and see what we will do about Eli/Elijah and Ariana in future rounds? :)
Absolutely =) Before we post that we're finished, we're supposed to work out where we live. I went with England originally cos it sounded cool but we can "move" if you like =)

Anything is fine with me :) We can stay in England :)

So first I guess we'll settle on where to live. As you have the diary I guess it makes sense to live near Cupar?
Exciting news we have a baby girl! Now we just need to figure out what to name her! :)
Shall we both compile a list of names say top 5 or 10?

Yeah lets make it a top 5. Here's mine:
Laura, Catherine, Alice, Clare, Rose
I like MN's that honor family members
I think staying near Cupar is great. :)

Ok my top 5 (in no particular order)
Charlotte, Sophie, Mia, Isabelle, Anastasia
I also really like all the names you suggested too!
As far as middle names go I agree its nice to honor family members and gives it a little meaning.
My family names:
Alice, Lily,Frances (I'd prefer to use Francesca),Eleanor, Elizabeth, Joan, Catherine,Isabella, Jane, Mary, Sophy (Dislike the spelling so Sophie instead, Sophia, Emma, Rachel.
Charlotte, Sophie, Mia, Isabelle, Anastasia

(I really dislike Anastasia, really like Charlotte and Mia)
and MN are family names like: Alice, Lily,Frances (I'd prefer to use Francesca),Eleanor, Elizabeth, Joan, Catherine,Isabella, Jane, Mary, Sophy (Dislike the spelling so Sophie instead, Sophia, Emma, Rachel
some of my family names are: Anne, Elisabeth, Maria, Catherina (Catherine), Johanna
