Four years after adopting Kenneth, the Tarnstrom family is expanding again. This time, Aaron and Cassie are adopting a 3-child sibling set from Iran. Because the children are older, the Tarnstrom's have just decided to give them middle names, and keep using their given first names. They would like names that are quite common and flow well with the children's Iranian first names.

The twins are now three years old. Austin and Leah recently surprised their two older children by allowing them to pick out two puppies from a local breeder. What kind of dogs should they get? They need names, as well. Sydney (who is getting a female dog) would like her dog's name to end in an "ee" sound (like Cutie, Pixie, or Shelly). Avery (who is getting a male dog) wants his dog's name to be tough and mean sounding.

Fourteen years have passed in the Sokolov family. Their oldest son, Milan, got married last summer. His wife's name is Elisabeth Noelle. Milan and Beth have just welcomed their first child, a daughter. Milan would like to honor his family by using a Russian name, but Beth does not like the idea. She would like her children to have common, everyday names. In order to compromise, Milan has decided to use a variant of one of his father's names for his daughter's middle name. Beth wants her daughter's first name to come in any top 10 popularity list.

One year after welcoming Athena to the family, Oliver and Samantha welcome their first son! Because it is their first boy, Oliver would like to use a family name (James, John, Jacob, or Howard). Samantha agrees, but would still like her son to have a middle name beginning with "K" and with a bit of an unusual first name. She and Oliver are okay with using variants of the family names to suit their preferences.
