Help[Games] Create a Family using Namesakes
I haven't seen one of these in a bit and I like them, so I thought I'd make one. :-) Create a family naming them after the specified namesakes. The number of first or middle names for each person is up to you, as long as they all fit the theme.
SO: (authors)
SO: (musical artists)
DD: (song titles)
DD/DS: (painters, sculptors, or any artists other than musicians) / (family members)
DS: (scientists of any kind)
DD/DD: (names of places) / (names of friends)
DS: (movie or book characters)
DS: (anyone from your home country who is famous for any reason )
