Stupid stuff

[ghost_light]

Many moons ago I asked you, my friends, for help with Sims families. The time has come to ask again.

I have a neighborhood where all of the Sims are inspired by friends. Not that mean-spirited "this is my college roommate living in this trailer with 12 kids" way, but based on their/your interests, jobs etc. For example, I have 2 dear friends who are obsessed with Star Wars. In the neighborhood they are both in the Lars family and one of them has kids named after X-Men and the other has kids named after Simpsons characters. Another dear friend is a lighting designer so his family is named Strand. I have yet ANOTHER dear friend who loves singing and being wenchy - I know what her kids will be named, but can't think of a good surname...

So....

What should I name your family and why? What should the names of your kids be?

You cannot possibly be talking about me?! *impish grin*

Kirish (cross between Korean & Irish :-D)

Tarte

Twollop


(Oh the awful puns you could use if you did Tarte as the last name... kids named Lemon and Raspberry come to mind...)

*giggle* and here I'd been trying to think of a fine Irish singer's name for your family...something that would work with kids named Ann and Jack...

Ann and Jack.... Bono? *snort*

Fine Irish singer... ahhh........ Sinead? *cracks up*

Sorry, I'm no help there! ;-)

I'm terrible with naming my Sims... they always get awful puns for names.

Such as my "test" family when I was trying out Sims2.
Surname: Testacasey (test case)
Father: Tar (rat)
Mother: Ginea (guinea pig)
Son: Tarbal (lab rat)
Daughter: NAT (no Animal testing)

*grin* I do that on occasion.

If you ever want to do a Sims crossover, you can use the Bracewell name :)

And I just realized I edited out the comment in my original post that explains that..

that family I made for myself has the surname Bracwell and currently the 2 kids are Sylvia and Maria (Maria is in college and dating Logan Lars)

Oh... for that.. Make em' decedents of Turlough O'Carolan (1670-1738) One of the finest Harpers of Ireland.

I might steal that for you.....

Oh, if you are going to name me something, name me Christy Moore. I just figred that Jack Moore would be an unfortunate name.

For a taste of Christy's work (if you don't already know it), http://tinyurl.com/9zjm6

So what should the kids be named after? :)

I'm amused-- I did my final paper in my History of Ireland class in college on Turlough O'Carrolan
