Family 1
Location: Shreveport, Louisiana
DH [23]:
Joseph Leo Girard (Guest)
DW [21]: Markie
Elise [Draper] Girard (molly)
DS [exp]:
Joseph and Markie are expecting their first child, and it's a boy! They're both excited, but cannot agree on a name.
Joseph likes modern, popular names while Markie would prefer something along her husband's name - timeless and intercultural. Thus, they're finding a compromise for their baby's name combo.

Felix Barnes Fairchild (Wordsmith)
DGf [28]:
Catriona Joan [White] Fairchild (cher529s)
DBf's DD [10]:
Rose Inanna Cybele Fairchild (Wordsmith)
DD [exp]:
Felix didn't really expect to become a father at the age of 46, but
Catriona found out she's pregnant with a girl a few days before
Christmas Day.
Rose is excited to have a little stepsister.
Felix and
Catriona agreed to let
Rose pick one of the girl's middle names, and she loves very long, frilly, ballerina-style names. The other two names are retired Atlantic hurricanes:

Family 3
Location: Chinchilla, Queensland, Australia
DH [24]:
Billy Harold McLean (molly)
DW [25]:
Holly Genevieve (
King) McLean (Guest)
D? [exp]:
Billy and
Holly decided not to find out the gender of their first baby, so they're looking for both a girls' and a boys' name. (For the sake of this game, the gender will be determined by a coin flip). They want the FN to be related to earth or soil, and the MN to be short, classic and likeable.

Emerson Alexander Parker (molly)
DH2 [25]:
Richard Jorge Calderon (cher529s)
ADD [3]:
Emerson and
Richard are adopting a 3-year-old girl from Zimbabwe. Her birth name is
Precious Blessing, which they don't really like, but they would like to "honor" the name by picking a combo in which the FN is a precious stone and the MN has a 'fortunate' meaning:
