[Games] Britto08's New Year's Compromise Congrats Round 4
It's been three years since your twins were born, and you and your spouse have decided to add to your family again. This time some of you will get twins, some of you will get single births. Also, due to the constant beggind of your children, you have gotten them pets. You may have up to three in any combination of cat, dog, horse, fish, hamseter/gerbil/rabbit/guinea pig, bird.
Rules
1. You keep up with ages.
2. If you miss a round, you do not have to make it up, but you will not get a baby the round you missed. You'll pick up with the round after and have fewer children than those who didn't miss.
3. If you decide to go with a name theme, let me know and explain it if it isn't obvious.
4. Have fun!

We're having a daughter! I'm open to all suggestions from our list and any new ones you may have, my dear. Also, how many pets would you like to get the kids? I think Ari and Henry are old enough to care for more than one. We may want something sturdy, as the twins, especially Lily, can be very hyperactive and sometimes get a little rough.

From your old list I like:
Caroline
Ella
Faith
Flora
Gabriella
Jane
Katherine
Leonie
Magdalena
Matilda
Miriam
Rose
Susanna
Theodora
Theresa
Willa
Zara
My list:
Cara
Isadora
Cerys
Josephine
Louisa
Henrietta
Amadea
Victorina
Emilia
Wilhelmina
Beatrice
Personally, I want a dog but I know Ari want a kitten. I'm not sure a kitten is such a good idea though. I'm afraid Lily could hurt it and it her. I'm tempted to buy a shetland pony for the girls but I don't know if it would be too expensive. If the girls get a horse I think Henry should get a dog. He's such a good little boy and I want him to feel special since the girls have a tendency to push him around.

From your list I like Cara, Josephine,Victorina, and Emilia as first names and Louisa, Isadora, and Beatrice as middle names. Here are some combos, feel free to play with them and add your own.
Cara Matilda
Ella Isadora
Josephine Leonie--WDYT of Jo or Josie as nns?
Katherine Beatrice
Caroline Louisa--I also like Cara as a nn for Caroline
Emilia Miriam
Miriam Emilia
Cara Jane
Leonie Cara
Victorina Jane
Rose Beatrice
I think a Shetland pony would be a good idea for the kids. A friend of mine knows a place that rescues them, and I think we can manage the care and keeping of one since they're so small. A think a nice docile female or gelding would be best. I also think a puppy would be a great confidence booster for Henry. It would be good for him to have something all his own to take care of. I think a retriever or spaniel of some kind would be a good idea, something calm and sturdy that can take the play of two three-year-olds and not get hurt or hurt them.

Caroline Isadora? We can call her Cara for short. Also, we got the Shetland pony for the girls, a sweet little palamino mare they called Goldie. They absolutely love her. Henry loves the puppy we got him, an adorable Border Collie he named Pirate. He feels so grown up taking care of him, it's maade him stand up for himself more with the girls.

Caroline Isadora nn Cara is lovely. I knew you would come up with the prefect name. I really think Pirate has made Henry more confident and the girls love Goldie. It was a good decision to buy them a horse and I must say I quite like to take them to the stable and see them interact so nicely both with each other and with Goldie.

What about Simon Edward? How many pets do you want? I was thinking three, a dog and two cats. Either that or a combo of small pets, because last time someone I knew had a big pet and a little pet the little pet either had a heart attack or got eaten.

Are we just getting 1 pet? I'm happy to get a horse, cat, dog or rabbit?
I'm definitely not thrilled with the idea of a horse, or a cat. I am not a cat person, and a horse is just... overkill. I'd honestly prefer a dog or a rabbit, but I'll leave the final decision to you. We can have both if you prefer.
Bernadette and Hecate
Too bad, the initial thought you were having twins was wrong. Sonagram revealed the second heartbeat the new technician thought he heard was just an echo. You were very happy with just your son anyway, and this time you really are having twins, as ultrasounds showed them both.

I like Rosalie, Nora, Leonora, Matilda, Ellen and Isabel. So Rosalie for one of the girls. Do you like Leonora "Nora" or do you prefer just Nora? I like Rose as a nn for Rosalie, but I'm fine without nickname too.
Some Rosalie combos:
Rosalie Amelia
Rosalie Ellen
Rosalie Melina
Rosalie Miranda
Rosalie Isabel
Rosalie Linnea
Some Rosalie combos:
Rosalie Amelia
Rosalie Ellen

I'd say we go with the one you like the most out of Rosalie Ellen and Rosalie Isabel. I like them both and can't pick between them.
Leonora Niamh
Leonora Celine
Leonora Esme
Leonora Alda
Leonora Melina
Leonora Matilda
Leonora Sophia

I think one of each would be nice. I like Daisy a lot for the female, and Thea told me she likes Caspian best for the girl, as she is reading the Narnia books right now and loves them :).

Ignore.
Yikes! Twins again! Any thoughts?
Well Lucas Nathaniel seems the sure way to go for the boy. AS for the girl, I would like to hear your thoughts.
Lucas Nathaniel is perfect for our son. As for our daughter, I still like Nora and Anneliese, but not together. Any thoughts for a middle name?
Nora Grace
Nora Claire
Nora Magdalene
Nora Genevieve
Anneliese Shea
Anneliese Claire
Anneliese Lorraine
Nora Grace
Nora Claire
Nora Magdalene
Nora Genevieve
Anneliese Shea
Anneliese Claire
Anneliese Lorraine
I like Anneliese Lorraine the best, but Nora Grace comes in a close second. I wouldn't mind using either.
Let's go with Lucas and Anneliese then. We can save Nora for later.
