These are in rounds, but anyone can join in at any time! Just remember, once the new round is started I don't go back and take into consideration anyone else's additions.

The Callamezzos are making a HUGE addition to their family. newborn triplets named Yan, Ran, and Li. All three were born early and abandoned at a local orphanage. The Callamezzo's know that while they hit the jackpot with triplets, they also will have to deal with new kiddos' medical issues (congenital heart problems and one with an undiagnosed syndrome of some type). Therefore, they decided these will be the last additions to their family, so that they can fully support the triplets and their medical needs.
-For Yan: They would like to choose a middle name that uses a combination of the letters Yan-, -yan-, or -yan, or they want to keep Yan. Since Yan means "gem" they want a first name that reflects wealth or fortune either in meaning or generalized feeling (but they don't want a gem name, as they find that too feminine for a boy).
-For Ran: They want a middle name that uses the sequence of letters Ran-, -ran-, or -ran, or they might keep the name Ran as well. For a middle name, they want a name that reflects the meaning of Ran, "gentle" either in literal meaning or vibe.
-For Li: For a middle name, they would like to choose a name with the sequence of letter Li-, -li-, or -li or just keep the name Li. Li means "beautiful" so they would like to choose a first name that reflects the meaning.
(Players, please explain all chosen first names if not obvious)

Yemanya and Massim were so happy to welcome Qiana's boyfriend, Farai, to the family as Qiana's husband at their wedding this past year. Qiana and Farai had a second child. Additionally, Marquise's longtime high school sweetheart gave birth to their first child. Qiana wants to name her second son with a name that means second or son with a middle name that is Italian. Marquise would like to name his son to reflect his girlfriend's Jewish heritage, either with a Jewish or Yiddish full first and middle name.

Franklin and Gina decided to adopt a third and final time, and this time they are adopting siblings, one with dwarfism and the other without. The new daughters are from Somalia, and they would like to choose Arabic first names. To connect them to their other sisters, Franklin and Gina would either like one daughter to have a Russian middle name and the other to have an Indian middle name or for each daughter to have both a Russian and Middle double middle name (i.e. first middle middle).

Mike and Shirley are OVERWHELMED! A few weeks after Margot came home they found out that the baby they were expecting, were two! Shirley fainted with surprise, but her nervousness subsided and she was excited to welcome a pair of sweet boys. Since their girls have names honoring their mother, Mike and Shirley would like to continue that theme and have the boys' first names honor Mike (http://www.behindthename.com/name/michael/related). Shirley means, "bright clearing" so they would like middle names that either mean bright, clearing, or have a meadow/field theme.

Jordan and Cadence thought that welcoming new babies was done and over after their children's birth mom got her tubes tied, but this year they found out that the kids had half siblings that entered into foster care. Jordan and Cadence had a very serious discussion about extending their family that far, but decided the benefit outweighed the guilt and sadness they would feel if all the siblings couldn't grow up together. The kids were only given initial names at birth, so Jordan and Cadence would like to give them full names to fill out the initials.
