The idea behind this NTNB is it will follow a number of families living in the same street over so many years. Every "round" the same number of years will have passed for each family and we will see how they've changed.
Join in, drop out, come and go - please play as you see fit :-)
ROUND 3 + 3 years
Family 1
BF: [32] Joshua James Wellington "Josh" (Ninor / Quill)
GF: [29] Olivia Mary Reilly "Liv" (SugarPlumFairy)
D: [3] Genevieve Riley Wellington "Eve" (Julia)
S OR D [exp]
Now Eve is a little older Josh and Liv have decided to try for another baby and are thrilled to find out they're expecting again. As with Eve, they've decided to not find out the gender but for this baby want a three-syllable name that can give a one-syllable nickname and a middle name that honours either Josh or Liv.
Family 2
H: [35] River-Phoenix Johnson (Serel Channah)
H: [37] Daniel Zephyr Sutton (tarajso)
AS: [6]
AD: [4]
Dog: [4] Elektra (Alex v)
River and Daniel adopted a brother and sister around a year ago - the children have settled in well and love playing with Elektra. Both children's names are from here: http://www.behindthename.com/top/lists/england-wales/2015 - their first names are between 100-200 and middle names 300-500.
Family 3
G'ma: [55] Mieczysława Fryderyka {Kowalczyk} Bukowski "Mia" (Julia)
H: [27] Piotr Eliasz Bukowski (KittyLove301)
W: [26] Alice Bryony {Cavendish} Bukowski (Eskarina)
D: [8] Ophelia Wioleta Bukowski (Jessamine)
D: [nb]
3 years later Mia has settled nicely into the Bukowski household and has learnt English well. Alice is even more glad to have her around now the family have welcomed their second daughter! The baby's first name is 4 syllables and feminine while she has a Polish middle name.
Family 4
SO: [41] Logan Blue MacEachern (Quill)
SO: [34] Genesis Hokulani Ka'aukai (Quill)
FD: [9]
dog: [boy - 10] Jocky (michal1223)
cat: [girl - 6] Medea (Jessamine)
dog: [girl - 3]
Inspired by neighbours, River and Daniel, Logan and Genesis are looking into adoption. But first they're fostering a 9 year old girl. They've also adopted another dog. Their foster daughter's name is old fashioned with a modern nickname and her middle name is a filler. The dog's name comes from one of these lists: http://www.behindthename.com/names/usage/celtic-mythology / http://www.behindthename.com/names/usage/welsh-mythology but has a easy-to-say nickname.
