The pets’ names from the last round were so good! Especially the quirky iguanas and the cats with the human names. I wanted to use so many of them!
Family 1
DW Lyla Jessica Trent Watanabe
DH Lochlan Charles Watanabe @EagleEyes
Rabbits: Dill & Basil @lolaybimba
Lyla and Lochlan are expecting their first child, a daughter. They don’t want her first name to begin with L like theirs, as they don’t want to set a theme!
FN Scottish
MN Japanese
LN Watanabe
Name the aunt: both parents will be returning to work quite quickly. Lochlan’s sister will be moving in to help look after the baby.
FN fun and bubbly sounding, like her!
MN begins with A
LN Watanabe
Family 2
DH Kevin James O’Toole (Orson)
DH Matthew Sky O’Toole (@namelover55)
Dogs: Vic & Bob (namelover55)
Kev & Matt are adopting a two year old. They are keeping her birth name and changing her middle and last.
FN is very long and/or multisyllabic with a very cute nickname
MN is a variation of one of her dads’ middle names.
LN O’Toole
Family 3
DW Alessia Rae Linden-Jones
DH Daniel Joseph Linden-Jones (@wander_lust3)
Iguana: Tango (@szinkle)
Alessia and Daniel have a baby boy on the way.
FN is one of your favourite boy names
MN is one syllable less than the FN. If you chose a 1 syllable FN, then he has no MN (which is fine!)
LN Linden-Jones
They are hiring a live-in nanny - you choose a gender
FN is extremely hippy-ish & Alessia & Dan love it, but the nanny chooses to use a more professional shortening or version (e.g. Star becomes Stella)
MN begins with V
LN a geological term (which doesn’t have to be an actual name)
Family 4
DBF John Joseph ‘Johnjo’
DGF Rosie Valentina Popincourt (lolaybimba)
Cat: Julie (@michele6924)
Johnjo & Rosie are having a girl.
FN inspired by her due date, July 4th.
MN is a feminisation of John or Joseph
LN Popincourt
Johnjo has been feeding a stray tom who has decided he lives with them now.
Name him after the lightning bolt shape on his back.
Family 5
DF Jack Bardwell
DF Charlotte Marinette Wilhelmstrasse (@Gingilocks101)
Kittens: Hershey & Galaxy (@BeccaRhubarb)
Jack & Charlotte are having twin boys
FNs are from the current German top 100
MNs begin with either J or C (or one of each)
LN Bardwell
Jack & Charlotte hire their neighbour’s animal-loving 14 year old to come and play with the kittens in the evening. You choose a gender
Kitten-sitter:
FN is very unusual & eccentric sounding
MN is a surname
LN contains at least one L and one C.
