Question: My idea was to make this game go for 3 more rounds which is why we've been using 15 names per roll of the dice. However, my family is getting quite large and difficult to name with only 6 categories of 15 names each. So, what would you prefer: 3 more rounds as is OR 1 more round where 10 years have passed and we have 280 names to use rather than the usual 90 names? I'll leave it up to you =)

This game simply uses a 6 sided die for all variables. You can use one of these dice sites if you wish:

This round, 5 years have passed. Roll for couples:
1-5- Still together.
6- No longer together.
*
Roll for each single person over the age of 18, including any who have just become single in the last roll:
1 or 2- Single.
3-5- In a relationship (your choice as to dating, engaged or married).
6- In a relationship with someone who already has a child or children. Roll for number of children:
1 or 2- 1 child,
3 or 4- 2 children,
5 or 6- 3 children.
*
Roll to find out how many children each couple have this round, including your original couple (children can be born to a woman 45 years old or younger):
1- 1 child
2- 2 children
3- 3 children
4- 4 children
5 or 6- 0 children
Roll for genders:
odd number= boy;
even number= girl.
Singles, twins, triplets etc are up to you. For example, if you rolled a 3 that could be 3 single births, twins and a single birth or triplets. You get the idea.

All names are taken from the US top 1000, 2016:

4- 676-690
5- 691-705
