[Games] Popularity/Numbers CAF
I've seen these before, but it's been a while (and I also couldn't remember what it was called, lol). The goal is to come up with a number, based on the ways listed below, for each family member. Then find that number on the popularity list for that year/decade and there's your name. I hope that makes sense. :b
DH: (1920s) FN: Add your father's age + your age, MN: Add the numbers of your mn + your father's mn
DW: (1940s) FN: Add your mother's age + your age, MN: Add the numbers in your birth month + your mother's birth month (i.e. August + July = 10)
DD: (1960s) FN: Add your birth month (i.e. 02 = February) + to last two digits of your birth year, MN: add the last two digits of the year you graduated (or will graduate) high school + 101
DS: (1970s) FN: Pick a number between 95-277, MN: Add 44 to the previous number
DS: (1980s) FN: Add the number of letters in the name of your city + number of letters in the name of your state (change accordingly for those outside the U.S.), MN: Use the number of minutes on the clock right now (so if it's 6:25, use 25)
DD: (1992) FN: If you were born in Spring/Summer, use 98 and if you were born in Fall/Winter, use 412, MN: Either add or subtract 107
DS: (2003) FN: Subtract your age from 1000, MN: Use any number with a 0 in it
***I hope this wasn't too confusing. Let me know. :)

Kierra Rose

Yusuf Vaughn
Love Clyde Walter and Nathaniel Howard, the flow of the CW isn't brilliant, but I love the names and the feel of them together. Jacqueline is sweet but doesn't go well with Karen, Martha is lovely but clashes with Shirley. Andrew William is nice, if plain. Like Kierra (prefer spelt Ciara) and I love Rose (prefer it for a first name), but the combo is trendy. Yusuf is nms (though it has the bonus of being Cat Stevens' chosen name) but I love Vaughn and they sound good together.
