This works like any other NTNB, except that the later rounds will be grandchildren rounds. Feel free to jump in at any time, whether or not you've played the previous rounds. Please read the rules carefully and make sure you don't skip any families!

The Augustine Family
DH: Samuel Curtis "Sam" Augustine (32)
DW: Jane Ellen Whitney Augustine (28)
DD:
Sam and Jane are expecting their first child, a girl. Jane likes "retro" sounding names like Deborah and Janice; names that aren't too old-fashioned but were popular in the 50's and 60's. Samuel, on the other hand, prefers names that sound "modern" like Kayla, Kylie, and Madison. They'd like to incorporate both of their naming styles, but they want to make sure the final combo flows well and isn't too mismatched.

The Lee Family
DH: Stanley John "Stan" Lee (24)
DW: Christina Elaine "Christy" Lee (24)
DD/DD:
Stan and Christy are expecting twin girls!. They don't want the names to sound awkward with their last name, which means no names ending in a long "e" sound, no names beginning or ending with L (or an L sound), and no one-syllable names. They would prefer to use names that are not too unusual.

The Moreau Family
DH: Germain Augustin Moreau (29)
DW: Chloe Pascale Moreau (29)
DS:
Germain and Chloe are expecting a boy. Although they live in the United States, both have French heritage and many French-speaking relatives. They would like to use a French name that is not too uncommon in the U.S.

The Payne Family
DW: Caryn Amelia Payne (32)
DW: Sylvia Melinda Austin Payne (32)
DD:
Caryn and Sylvia are expecting a daughter. They would like her first name to have the letter Y in it somewhere. (They would prefer that it be the original spelling of the name, not an alternative spelling like Olyvia or Melyssa.) Her middle name should honor Caryn's mother, Susannah Rose, or Sylvia's mother, Maybelle Elizabeth.

The Wilkinson Family
DH: Timothy Preston Wilkinson (26)
DW: Jessica Zoe "Zoe" Wilkinson (26)
DS:
Timothy and Zoe are expecting a son. Timothy, who has always gone by his full name and is fed up with people's constant attempts to shorten his name to Tim, really wants their son to have a first name that doesn't have any obvious nicknames. Zoe likes nicknames, but she's okay with Timothy's idea as long as they use a middle name that isn't too popular or "filler" and has good nickname options.
