This is a typical NTNB, except that the year is now 2120 and the trends are slightly different. Below is an example of 2120 trends in baby names to help out with each family.

---

In general, parents are finally fed up with the unique-word-name trend. However, there are some word-names that have become so commonplace as to seem usual/typical/normal/okay. Names that were popular in the early 1900s became the standard set for the parents of this generation. The most popular names (the ones that came back early and strong) from the 1900's are currently the least trendy. However, the names that had a slower buildup or just didn't see as much use are still considered fair game. Names that were popular in the 1940's/1950's/1960's are the current favorites and one of the most popular trends. Other current trends include unique nicknames as first names, unusual occupational names, and a return to names from or about medieval times. Finally, the most obnoxious trend (to many name-lovers at least) is giving girls names that were popular boys names in the 1940's/1950's/1960's. As a new generation is starting to name their children, names that were mildly trending in 2010 are starting to once again receive attention.

The Jones Family

DD: "Trixie" Patricia Eleanor Sailor Jones [NurseMom75]

DS: "Archie" Architect Emmanuel Ralph Jones [Ninor]
-- Dgf: _____ _____ Maurer
DD/DS: "Vivi" Sylvia Ever Songlark Jones / "Fort" Forester Eagle Donald Jones [ghost / AnnaMarie]
DD: "Ginger" Virginia Ethel Piper Jones [AnnaMarie]

Trixie and Koen are doing well and are still together. They are happy to take things slowly, but don't look like they will be splitting up ever. Archie now has a GF. Her FN is a timeless classic, but she uses a nickname that is distinctly from the 1930's/1940's/1950's. Her MN is filler (remember, there are a whole new generation of "filler" MNs, so it's okay to think outside of the box a little here!).

The Davis Family

DH: "Cord" Corduroy Hoyt Davis
DW: Rosalina Mollie (née O'Reilly) Davis

-- Dbf: _____ _____ Deering
DD: Brenda Vidia Davis [miakendall1075]
DS: Percival Gary Davis [ghost]
DS: Dennis Salazar Davis [Ninor]
DD: Melinda Faerie Davis [SugarPlumFairy]

---

Abbott and Barney have had an on-again-off-again relationship for the past few years. They are currently on-again, and trying to become a family. On the plus side, they have not had any more children... yet.

---

Kathleen now has a boyfriend. At first, her parent's were worried (after all, look what happened when their first started dating!). However, her BF is truly a good guy. His FN has a British vibe/feel and his MN is traditional.

The Lobo Family

---

DH: Otis Steven Lobo
exW: Heather-Hadley Merche Maradona-Lobo
DW: "Katie" Catherine Emily (née Noel) Lobo [Edith Therese]

DS/DD: Dick Alexander Maradona Lobo [Aderyn Azula]

DD: Dale Audrey Maradona Lobo [NurseMom75]
DD: Gwen Marilyn Noel Lobo [Loki]
DD: Judy Evelyn Noel Lobo [AnnaMarie]
DS: Arlo Samuel Noel Lobo [ghost]

---

Both Dick and Troy are dating, and it's anybodies guess as to who will be married first. Dick's GF's FN is super-feminine/frilly and her MN is an unusual floral name. Troy's BF's FN is unisex and his MN is a one-syllable name that starts with "B".

The Crocetti Family

DH: Giovanni Duke Crocetti [Aderyn Azula]

DW: Heather-Hadley Merche (née Maradona) Crocetti
DS: Nico Slade Crocetti [JN316]

---

DW: Luminita Esphyr (née Ionescu) Crocetti [ghost]
DS: Dragos Mikhail Crocetti [Edith Therese]
DS: _____ _____ Crocetti

---

Giovanni and Luminita are having another son. Their DS's FN should be a nickname... maybe of Italian or Romanian or Russian origin. His MN should also be a tough/fierce name that dad things will bestow a "manly" feel. If the MN is English, it should be a word name. Otherwise, the MN should be either Italian or Romanian or Russian (also, if the FN is Italian then the MN should be Romanian or Russian, otherwise, vice-versa).
