Nyx' Choose-Your-Own-Adventure KUY CAF - Round 14 (children)
Ok, the rules are pretty simple, I'll be providing two or more options, and you follow the "adventure" that suits you best. Each "adventure" will have it's own set of naming rules for that round. Stories are optional, but always enjoyed and encouraged :) Ages are optional, and you keep track of them yourself. I will not be killing off any family members in this game, but you may chose to do so yourself. Surnames and maiden names are not provided for in the prompts, but should be used in case they are referenced in future rounds. I'll provide links to each previous round, so you can quickly find your family.Note: Just because your chose Adventure # in one round doesn't mean that you are stuck with that # for every other round. Each round you can chose your own adventure (hence, the name).Signups: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3913184&board=game

Round 13: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3920204&board=game (Spouse 4 of 5)DC = Darling Child, or a first generation child. All other children are second generation.If you wish, you may have a couple divorce in any round. If they divorce in round 7, they can remarry in the next spouse round.Any DC may have children this round. Each DC may only use an adventure once. However, if DC#1 uses Adventure 1, DC#2 can also use that same adventure to have their own children. Each DC may use any, all, or none of the adventures in this round to have children. If your DC uses this round to have a child, and is not married, the child will NOT be related to whomever they marry (if they ever do) in the future.If you are keeping track of ages: Ages are provided for each of the children. Take the age from the oldest adventure used, add 1 to it, and advance all members of your family that amount. (ex. If you only use an adventure that has a NB, then the ages of your family are advanced one year [nb+1=1]. If you use adventures with a nb, an 1 year-old and a 3-year-old, then the ages of your family are advanced 4 years [3+1=4].)

Adventure 1:
Your DC had a daughter. She is spunky, energetic, and very much a tom boy at this stage. However, there is a rare feminine streak that comes out at strange times (like the Halloween she insisted that she wanted to be a ninja ballerina).
DD: (2) Her FN is unisex and her MN is very frilly/feminine.Adventure 2:
Your DC had a daughter. While she is just barely toddling around, her parents are sure that she is going to be very creative. They've enrolled her in all sorts of "mommy-and-me" classes (art, dance, gymnastics).
DD: (1) Her FN is a "Hippy" name (http://www.hippy.com/hippynames.htm#alpha), and her MN is an unusual word name.Adventure 3:
Your DC had a son. At 3, this little boy is a tank! His parents can't wait for him to get old enough to play (American) football, or maybe wrestling.
DS: (3) His FN is very masculine, has been in the top 100 at some point, but is currently below #400 in popularity. His MN honors a family member. He has a nickname that references a dinosaur or other large animal.Adventure 4:
Your DC just had a son! Both parents are thrilled with the latest addition to their family. He is already the little darling of the family, and everybody dotes on him.
DS: (nb) His FN is a common, one-syllable name, doubled (ex. JonJon, TyTy, etc.). His MN is any name any name from those posted in Round 13 (so you can use any name from my families, or any one else who posted in round 13).Adventure 5:
Your DC recently met a young girl through a volunteer experience at a program for at risk children. The girl was 5 months pregnant, scared, homeless and friendless. She had run away from an abusive family (the less said, the better). She didn't know at the time that she was pregnant. After meeting her, your DC felt an immediate connection, and went back again and again. Within a month, the girl asked your DC if she would adopt the child. Your DC agreed, but only if the girl would agree to move in until she could get on her feet. In the end, your DC adopted both the girl and her son. However, the boy will be raised as her little brother, taking away some of the stress from the young girl.
AD: (14) Take the second letter of your REAL FN, and use as the first letter of AD's FN. Take the last letter of your REAL MN (or FN if you don't have a MN), and use as the first letter of AD's MN.
A?: (nb) Gender is your choice. His/her FN/MN(s) come from the following lists: http://nameberry.com/blog/2010/09/12/unusual-names-for-boys-below-the-top-1000/ or http://nameberry.com/blog/2010/09/09/unusual-names-for-girls-less-popular-than-you-think/
You may chose to advance your family from 1 to 4 years for this adventure
