Great, well that gives us a good starting point anyway!

So for Round 1 we have to;

- Agree on a surname (and maiden name, if you want)
- Name your DH and DW (however, don't decide who is what. You can give them ages if you want)
- Start talking a bit about names. Create a list if you want too.
- Write "Finished" in the subject line when the two of you consider yourselfs finished

So, surname... Did you want to choose a name from our lists that works as a surname as well? or do you have a 'favorite' surname? Suggestions:

Daniels
Jacobs
Andrew
Orion
Philippe

That's actually a good idea. Maybe we could have a maiden name for the DW like that, and then choose a different one for the DH. That way the first son or something we can have them honor the DW.

Maybe ____ ____ Jacobson?

And for the husband, here's some I like:

Kennet
Rosenfeld
Hanley
Bernard/Barnard
Bellamy
Fairbairn
Rothwell

Or Bellamy could be the maiden name of the DW, and Bellamy could be a name used for a DD. Bellamy would be a cute name.

I like your thinking about using one of names as the maiden name, and then honoring that in a sons name... brilliant!

Jacobson works, and then having Jacob as the first sons mn?

Out of your suggestions I like Rothwell best. So is this them?

DH: ______ ______ Rothwell (?)
DW: ______ ______ Rothwell [nee Jacobson] (?)

I'm thinking early-mid 20's for their ages? Maybe 23-26?

For the names, did you want to each pick one, or should we pick out top 5 male & female out of each others lists, and then we'd have 10 names for each gender to toss around and make combos out of?

How about these ages?

DH: ______ ______ Rothwell (25)
DW: ______ ______ Rothwell [nee Jacobson] (23)

Do you want to choose the FN of one, and I the FN of the other, and then the same for MNs?

perfect - BUT, just to make it interesting, what if we have to pick from each others lists not our own????

Do you want to do the fn for DH or DW?

That works for me. I'll choose the FN for the DH.

How about we go with Dominic for the FN?

WDYT of Dominic Evander Rothwell?

How about Gwendolyn for the wife? nn Gwen?

Works for me. Maybe his nn could be Dom or Nick. Which do you like better? Or he wouldn't even have to have a nn.

What do you think of Gwendolyn Lucretia [Jacobson] Rothwell?

- AnnaMarie

LOVE Gwendolyn Lucretia! honestly i'm just excited to use Lucretia :)

I'd go for Dom as a nn for Dominic.

So this is us then:

DH: Dominic Evander Rothwell "Dom" (25)
DW: Gwendolyn Lucretia Rothwell [nee Jacobson] "Gwen" (23)
