Family ranking CAF
Look up the US list for the birth year of your grandparents, note the rank of your grandparents' name(s), then go to the 2014 chart and use the names that have the same ranking of your grandparents' names. The US chart is at http://www.behindthename.com/top/lists/united-states/2014 change the year as needed.
For example, my grandpa was born in 1914 and named Edward Henry. Those names ranked #8 and #12. In 2014, the #8 and #12 male names were Alexander Benjamin.
If the name was not ranked, use something similar (ie, for a female, if the male form is ranked, use that ranking and feminize the modern male name with that ranking) or use another unranked name.
Do the same for as many family members as you like and create a whole family!

I used my maternal family because my paternal grandmothers name doesn't rank so it's pretty hard to do. I guessed at some of my aunts and uncles ages.
