Family 1 – I rolled d12 for number of kids, then each child’s gender and age, and did a d24 count-along namebank (so I wouldn’t get stuck just at the beginning of the alphabet) and rolled for first names first then middle names

Family 2 – I did this one the same as before to pick the family, then for names I used a letter dice to select the letter, then a d12 to select the name. I started at the beginning of that letter list for each name, I didn’t count-along from the last name of that letter used. If there weren’t the number of names that I rolled, I just kept counting from the beginning of that letter. If there was only one name for a letter for a particular gender, and I rolled it for another child, I rolled again for a different letter. (e.g. I letter diced and got G, so went to namebank George Gerald Geoffrey Gideon Gregory, then did d12 and rolled d9, so when I got to Gregory, I just kept counting at George again = his name’s Gideon). If I got the same name again (or something that would be too close to use logically in the same family e.g. Montague and Montgomery for not twins, although even for twins that’d be bad), I just rolled again. If it happened a third time, I picked the one I liked the best ;)

Family 3 – this time I did the same to see what family I’d get and for names just letter diced and chose what I wanted :) Wow, this ended up being quite a busily-procreating twin-making family!
