http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3799110&board=gameOkay, time for Round 2. Three years have passed, and it’s time for your next child…or children.
The gender rules stand thus: Choose whichever book you are currently reading (if you are not reading anything, choose the last movie you saw) and think of the main character. The gender of the main character is the gender of your child. Now, does your main character have any older siblings (if you are thinking about a movie, you are likely to not know, so if you don’t, don’t worry about it)? If your MC has an older brother (such as mine) you have twins! If there’s more than one older sibling, you have triplets, quadruplets, etc. To simplify this, do not worry about younger siblings, and if you are reading (or watching a movie) about a family with more than 7 kids older than your MC, don’t go farther than 7.
Example: Miranda has an older brother named Wade. Therefore, my family has twins
Now for naming rules: add up the number of letters in the mother’s name and the father’s name.
Ex.: Jack+Jill=8
Then go to Nymbler (
http://nymbler.com/) and where it says ‘Type name of your choice’ insert the name of your first child. Then specify that you want only the names for the gender of the MC. After you get your names, count eight (or whatever your names are), going down the row left to right, just like reading and that is your name. Repeat for the number of children you have (if you have more than one of one gender, go eight—aka, your number—from the first name).
You may choose your own middle name (sorry, to SamJr., Wintertale & LadyBug, since I forgot to add this before you posted!)
It sounds very complicated, but just follow the steps and you’ll be fine! Have fun!
