Help[Games] AE's Adoption Congrats-2
Aimee
DH: Louis Connor Jensen
DW: Adeline Rebecca "Addie" {Rosenberg} Hayes
- DD: Aviva Summer Jensen [9; Southhampton, UK]
- DD: [4; Bangkok, Thailand]
Location: Winchester, UK
Louis and Addie were ecstatic to welcome another daughter into their family. Their littlest daughter, now four, is from Thailand and little is known about her past. She does have asthma, which her parents need to be vigilant about, but otherwise she’s a lively and fun girl who’s always on the go. Aviva, who’s more bookish, sometimes has a hard time keeping up. The family has been enjoying several trips as well as the simple familial pleasures that each season brings.
Louis and Addie decided to keep her Thai birth name as a middle name and chose a long, fanciful new first.

SO1: Katya Rosabel Faraday [32]
SO2: Elias Maximilian Blake [30]
- DD/DD: Aurelia Mei Faraday-Blake and Cordelia Wen Faraday-Blake [3; Chengde, China]
- DS: [nb]
Location: Toronto, Canada
Katya and Elias hadn’t been quite sure whether they were going to have biological children or not and when Katya found out she was pregnant the two were completely taken by surprise. Despite not planning the pregnancy, Katya ended up really appreciating this chance to experience the birth of a child firsthand. She and Elias had a lot of fun doing all the usual pre-baby activities and shopping that they’ve missed with adoption. As for Aurelia and Cordelia, they’re still deciding whether their new brother is an alien or not!
Katya and Elias chose a longer, more nineteenth-century style English name for their son’s first name. He has two middle names. One is very short. One comes from the namebank below.
Namebank: Albert, Alexander, Ambrose, Basil, Edmond, Emrys, Lionel, Montague, Percival, Reginald, Rupert, Rowland, Roy, Sebastian, Vernon

DH: Thaddeus “Thad” James Rowland (33)
DW: Juniper “June” Eliza Rowland, née Nash (33)
- DD: Margot Imani Anuket Rowland [Los Angeles, CA] (6)
- DS: [Los Angeles, CA] (2)
Location: Los Angeles, CA
It’s been two years since Thad and June officially adopted Margot, and they’ve just adopted their next child, a little boy. Their son was a child of a single mother who died from complications with a routine surgery. Since his mother was estranged form the rest of her family, none of them felt obligated to take the boy in. Since he’s very young, he doesn’t really understand what’s happened, and concerns himself more with his toys. He especially likes playing with his new sister and reading at night with his parents.
Thad and June gave their son a new first name (see namebank below). They decided to keep his birth name, a surname, as one of his middle names. The other middle name they chose was used by Shakespeare.
Namebank: Amadeo, Asher, Castor, Cormac, Everard, Finnian, Gawain, Idris, Lewis, Lorcan, Malachy, Peregrine, Ross, Silas, Viggo

- DD: [3] Sienna Joy Hart [Juneau, AK]
- DS: [nb] [Mumbai, India]
Location: Juneau, Alaska
Jericho and Felicity’s family home is bursting at the seams now that they’ve finally brought home their youngest son. The little boy’s mom died in childbirth and no one has been able to locate any other family members, so he was able to be adopted. He’s settling in to his new home perfectly. His brothers especially dote on him. Jericho and Felicity are busy and stressed and lacking sleep, but they continue to love their family more and more every day.
Jericho and Felicity chose a name that is rising in popularity for his first name. For his middle name they chose a slightly British sounding name.

SO1: Viviana Gabrielle
SO2: Sarah Josephine
- DD: Sofia Margaret [16; Bender, Moldova]
- DS: [nb; Mexico City, Mexico]
Location: Oregon, USA
Viviana and Sarah were unsure how Sofia would feel when and if they adopted again, so they decided to wait a while. In the end, Sofia was the one to confront them one night and ask impatiently “So, am I going to get any siblings or what?!”. They got on it right away and were able to take home a newborn boy from Mexico City. His parents had experienced many close calls with violence in the city, and let him be adopted so he wouldn’t have to grow up with the violence. Viviana and Sarah can’t wait to be able to see all the big moments in his young life.
Since their new son didn’t have a birth name, Viviana and Sarah had free range in naming him. They chose a Spanish form of a Biblical name for his first name and a classic middle name.

DW1: Wilhelmina Eulalie Silverstone “Will”
DW2: Clara Danielle (Davies) Silverstone
- DS: Ignatius Gabriel Silverstone “Iggy” [4; Barranquilla, Colombia]
- DS: [nb; Kumba, Cameroon]
Location: Oregon, USA
Will and Clara have been enjoying helping Iggy grow throughout the years, and are looking forward to doing the same with their new baby boy. They recently took Iggy with them to Cameroon to pick up their newborn son. Their son’s father was kidnapped a couple of months before he was born and his mother didn’t feel she could handle another mouth to feed so he was put up for adoption. Will and Clara couldn’t be more excited to be parents to two perfect boys.
Will and Clara decided on an older name with a nickname that makes it seem new. They chose a name from the namebank below for one of his middle names. The other middle name is his birth name and also the name of his birthfather. It is from a Bantu language.
Namebank: Arago, Aries, Atlas, Castor, Dorado, Draco, Finlay, Holmes, Mars, Orion, Phoenix, Rigel, Sirius, West, Wolf

DH: Finley Joseph McBride
DH: Adam Frederick Henley
- DS: Charles Owen Henley-McBride “Charlie” [19; London]
- - DS: Dexter James Henley-McBride [3]
- DD: [4; Moscow, Russia]
Location: London
Finley and Adam watched Charlie graduate high school last year and dropped him off at college not long after. They weren’t sure he would graduate, let alone get into college, and they couldn’t be prouder now that he has. Meanwhile, they have been in the process adopting a little girl from Russia. She was abandoned and has been living in an orphanage for a couple of years now. Although she speaks limited English, she has already displayed an extremely talkative side and has really bonded with her older brother. Charlie does find it kind of weird that his sister is just a year older than his son, but family’s family, and he loves his.
Finley and Adam decided to give their daughter a new first and middle name and kept her birth name as a second middle name. Her first name is a frilly vintage and her middle name is a word. Her birth name comes from the namebank below.
Namebank: Agrafena, Anfisa, Evgeniya, Galina, Irina, Kseniya, Milena, Nadezhda, Oksana, Polina, Raisa, Svetlana, Vasilisa, Yaroslava, Zinaida

SO1: Drew Matthew Landon
SO2: Lila Deanne [Corey] Landon
- DS//DS: Seth Corey Landon // Spencer Raleigh Landon
- DD: [1]
Location: Wilmington, North Carolina
Seth and Spencer are growing up to be quite the musicians; Seth drums his hands on anything he can find and Spencer has mastered the toy xylophone. Neither of them quite understand that the racket annoys the rest of the family, well… except their new little sister, who can’t hear it. Drew and Lila recently adopted a little girl who was put up for adoption soon after her birthparents found out she was deaf. She’s a little sweetheart who seems to enjoy everything, despite being unable to hear it. Drew and Lila are determined to do whatever it takes to make sure she can lead a normal life.
Drew and Lila chose a name from the namebank below for their daughter’s first name. Her middle name is related to nature.
Namebank: Charlotte, Elisabeth, Faith, Grace, Hannah, Harper, Isabella, Kathryn, Lucy, Olivia, Sarah, Savannah, Sofie, Victoria, Zoey

SO1: Nicholas John Clancy “Nick”
SO2: Cierra Claire [LaCour] Clancy “CC”
- DS: Philip James Clancy “Pip” [18; Las Vegas, NV]
- DD: [7, LA, CA]
Location: Los Angeles, CA
Pip has been applying for colleges as his Senior year progresses. He’s been doing really well in his classes and his soccer coaches have told Nick and CC that he’s good enough to get a fairly large athletic scholarship. Although he’s proud of his accomplishments and looks forward to the next stage of his life, he will be sad to leave his sister so soon after meeting her. Nick and CC recently adopted a young girl who’s been in Foster system for years. She was only able to be adopted recently after her mom, a drug addict, signed away her parental rights. Like Pip was when he first arrived, his new sister has some trust and self esteem issues, but her new family plans to show her they love her no matter what.
Nick and CC obviously kept their daughter’s birth name. It’s a fairly popular classic with a very informal nickname. Her middle name is a modern Spanish name.

SO1: Marnie Wu [33]
SO2: Violet Elizabeth Rosencrantz [31]
- DD: Lakshmi Garland Wu-Rosencrantz [8; Velachery, Chennai, India]
- DD: [2; San Anselmo, CA]
Location: Fairfax, California
Marnie and Violet are relieved by how much Lakshmi loves her new sister. They were a little concerned that she would feel she was being replaced, but it seems quite the opposite. Lakshmi acts as if her little sister was a perfect present just for her. The little girl actually landed in Foster care after she developed a disease that required a surgery her parents couldn’t pay for. She is now cured and a perfectly happy and boisterous girl. Marnie and Violet are looking forward to seeing her grow from such a young age and Lakshmi just adores her.
Marnie and Violet decided to keep their daughter’s birth name (see namebank below) as a middle name and have chosen a short, sweet new first name.
Namebank: Abigail, Annabelle, Brooklyn, Caroline, Charlotte, Elizabeth, Evelyn, Gabriella, Kennedy, Madison, Peyton, Scarlett, Samantha, Victoria, Violet

DW: Hera Seraphine Cospatrick-Chandler
DW: Jemima Ophelia Cospatrick-Chandler
- DD: Sylvie Antonella Edith Cospatrick-Chandler [4; New York, NY]
- DD: [1; New York, NY]
Location: New York, New York, USA
Sylvie is excited to be a big sister! It’s been two years since she was adopted and her parents recently got a call from the adoption agency about a little one year old girl. The girl’s mom was arrested for possession of drugs and is now in court-ordered rehab; she signed away her parental rights so her daughter could be adopted. Hera and Jemima are happy to have another toddling little girl around the home, but they have raised some concerns about whether she has drugs in her system. So far the doctors haven’t found any traces of them, but all the adults are being very watchful just in case.
Hera and Jemima decided against keeping the birth name, but they did give her two middle names like Sylvie. Her new first name comes from the namebank below. One of her middle names is a feminization, and the other is a dated classic.
Namebank: Alicia, Ana, Beatrix, Carlotta, Dorothea, Ellen, Elsabetta, Harrietta, Josephina, Katrina, Louise, Marguerite, Sofie, Susanne, Virginie
