A (small) generational caf today because Anne books always have loads of names (143 firsts & 97 surnames, if I counted right)! She was truly a namenerd before namenerds
Please feel free to do this caf however you’d like to! Change spellings, switch out a kid for a pet using that kids’ name options, add an extra kid using the surname options, add ages, occupations, maiden names, multiple middle names, etc etc. Just have fun!

*both spellings of these names are used separately in the book, so I’ve just put them together, but feel free to use one on one family member and the other on another if you wish!
And of course you can always do something fun with extra last names, especially since there are so many in this one! Add extra kids, some pets, name an existing kid with a last name option, whatever you wish
