Household #1
This family moved to the area twelve years ago, when they were expecting their son. DH works as a high school English teacher, while DW has a successful business selling her handmade jewellery online. Their son is a passionate (and talented) swimmer who competes at a district level, and their daughter has a creative streak and loves to help her mum with her jewellery designs. Their surname is among the 50 most common in the USA.
DH [40]: His first name was common in the US in 1981, and his middle name is a surname (his mother's maiden name)
DW [39]: Her first name and middle name are English names which begin with the same letter, and her maiden name is 10 letters long
DS [11]: His first name is a unisex name, and his middle name is his father's name or a variation of it
DD [7]: Her first name is a nature name, and her middle name is one syllable
Household #2
DGM is from France (as was her late husband), and moved to this area shortly after the birth of DH, their only child, in the 70s. She has lived with her son and daughter-in-law since the death of her husband ten years ago, and she dotes on all three of her grandchildren. DD1 is quiet and studious and hopes to become a doctor; DS is mostly interested in his Xbox these days; and DD2, the baby of the family, is a keen musician. DH and DW opened a bakery together several years ago, and are grateful that DGM is able to help look after the children. Their last name is a French surname ending in 'x'.
DGM [78]: Her first name is a classic French name, her middle name ends in -elle, and her maiden name is French
DH [49]: His first name is a hyphenated French name (e.g. Jean-Pierre), and his middle name was popular in France in 1972
DW [47]: Her first name a shortened form/nickname of a common English name, her middle name is a 'filler' MN, and her maiden name is a two-syllable English surname
DD1 [17]: Her first name is English or French and least 8 letters long, and her middle name is a gemstone
DS [15]: His first name was popular in France in 2006, and his middle name is a classic English name
DD2 [10]: Her first name ends in -i or -ie, and her middle name honours DGM
Household #3
DW1 is a nature photographer and DW2 is a nurse; they are both natives of the area, but first met when on holiday in South Africa. They hit it off instantly, and moved in together in this neighbourhood before getting married. They recently adopted their son, a five-year-old boy - they did not change his first name, but were able to choose a middle name for him. DW1's surname is of German or Dutch origin, and DW2's surname is one syllable. They use a hyphenation of the two surnames: [DW1's surname]-[DW2's surname].
DW1 [31]: Her first name is a short and uncommon English name, and her middle name is an Ancient Greek name
DW2 [33]: Her first name is common across many languages, and her middle name was popular in the USA in the 50s
DS [5]: His first name is considered 'trendy', and his middle name is a rare Biblical name
Household #4
Once upon a time, DBF was the guitarist of a relatively popular rock band. Now, the band has fallen apart, and he makes his living by giving guitar lessons. He has three adult children from previous relationships, and two kids with his current long-term girlfriend, an architect from the Netherlands. DD dreams of being a famous musician like her father, and he's been teaching her the guitar; DS couldn't care less about music, and instead aspires to become a dinosaur, or, failing that, a paleontologist. The children have DH's surname, which is a fairly rare, long English surname.
DBF [54]: His first name is a common English name beginning with a vowel, and his middle name is a common Biblical name - however, he goes by a monosyllabic English word as a nickname (think of Slash from GNR or Sting from the Police!)
DGF [38]: Her first name is a short Dutch name, her middle name is also Dutch, and her surname is a Dutch surname beginning with the same letter as her FN
DD [8]: Her first name is associated with space, the stars, or a planet, her first middle name was popular in the Netherlands in 2013, and her second middle name is usually a nickname or diminutive of a masculine name (e.g. Tommy, Billy)
DS [6]: His first name is a 'cool'/'edgy' word name, his first middle name was popular in the Netherlands in 2015, and his second middle name is an 'old man' name which hasn't yet made a comeback
Household #5
This family only recently moved to the area, deciding they needed a bigger home after welcoming their twin daughters. DH recently quit his job in order to become a stay-at-home dad, while DW is a talented chef working at a well-known restaurant. DH has decided that although the twins are only a year old, they're both definitely troublemakers with a penchant for mischief! Their last name is a surname of Irish origin.
DH [29]: His first name ranked between 400 and 500 in the USA in 1992, and his middle name is the name of a saint
DW [29]: Her first name is most commonly associated with a character from a book, film, or TV show, her middle name is a flower, and her maiden name is 6 letters long
DD1/DD2 [1]: Their first names begin with the same letter and both have a 'cutesy' nickname; DD1's middle name is a Latin name still in use today, and DD2's middle name has a meaning which involves God.
