HelpDaffy's Overly Elaborate Medieval Year Game
(As requested, this is a re-post of my old game. Hope you have fun!) Every country has specific namebanks and specific events. Most people in medieval times had no middle name but… whatev, you do you! It is also up to you how severely your family will be affected by events. Once a child is grown you can roll (or choose) their profession and create an SO for them. :)
Dice: (http://www.brockjones.com/dieroller/dice.htm)
a. Roll an 8-die or choose your family’s homeland:
1 England An naval island nation with unsteady relationships.
2 France A rich and ostentatious kingdom.
3 The Holy Roman Empire A massive, powerful, multicultural nation.
4 Ireland A rocky, resilient island under English jurisdiction.
5 Muscovy A cold and relatively secluded duchy.
6 The Spanish Empire A maritime nation of explorers.
7 Scotland A green, agrarian nation that has thwarted off many invaders.
8 The Republic of Venice An intellectual, bustling, cosmopolitan land.
Create a starter household (The rest of the game is played with the 12-die):

d. Optional naming rules:
- England: N/A
- France: N/A
- The Holy Roman Empire: Surnames for women/girls end with either “in”, “yn”, or “s”. (Pfeiffer = Pfeifferin or Pfeiffers, Vogel = Vogelin or Vogels)
- Ireland: A woman typically does not take her husband’s name. Instead of “Ó” or “Mac” women use “inghean Uí” and “inghean Mhic” respectively. (If a woman’s father’s given name is “Lochlann”, her surname may be “inghean Mhic Lochlann”. If a woman’s family’s name is “Ó Broin”, her surname may be “inghean Uí Broin”)
- Muscovy: Everyone’s given name is followed by a patronymic. For men: the patronymic will end in “ovich” or “evich” (“Dmitrii” becomes “Dmitrievich”, “Nikita” becomes “Nikitovich”). For women: “ovna” or “evna” are used (“Nikita” becomes “Nikitovina”, “Dmitrii” becomes “Dmitrievna”). A woman’s surname/byname must also end with an “a” or “ia” (“Kliushnikov” becomes “Kliushnikova” or “Kliushnikovia”)
- The Spanish Empire: N/A
- Scotland: A woman typically does not take her husband’s name.
