[Games] Victorian(ish) Dice CAF
(Inspired by SofiaSweden's Create-A-Sibset!)Use dice from http://www.brockjones.com/dieroller/dice.htm (or wherever, it doesn't particularly matter!) - roll for the number of children (d6, d8, d10, or d12 depending on how many you feel like doing), and then d2 for their genders (even for a girl, odd for a boy). Feel free to use the namebanks however you like: free choice, count-along, using a random letter picker, or anything else!Albert Alfred Ambrose Anton Archibald Arthur Augustus Barnaby Basil Benedict Casper Cecil Cedric Clarence Clement Constantine Cornelius Crispin Cyril Cyrus Dorian Douglas Edgar Edmund Edward Edwin Emmanuel Ernest Eustace Evander Fabian Felix Ferdinand Florian Francis Frederick George Gerald Geoffrey Gideon Gregory Harold Hector Horatio Howard Hugh Humphrey Ignatius Ivor James Jasper Jolyon John Jonathan Julian Kenneth Laurence Leonard Leopold Linus Lionel Louis Lucian Magnus Malcolm Marcus Marmaduke Maximilian Maxwell Miles Montague Montgomery Octavian Oliver Orlando Oscar Otto Owen Peregrine Percival Philip Phineas Quentin Ranulph Ralph Raymond Reginald Reuben Roderick Rufus Rupert Sebastian Silvester Simeon Stanley Thaddeus Theodore Timothy Tobias Tristan Valentina Victor Vincent Walter Wilfred William Winston Ada Adelaide Adela Alexandra Allegra Alice Amabel Amelia Annabella Antonia Arabella Augusta Beatrice Camilla Cecilia Celeste Clarissa Constance Cora Cordelia Cosima Daisy Delia Diana Dorothea Dorothy Edith Eleanor Eleanora Elizabeth Eloisa Emmeline Estella Ethel Eudora Eugenie Eva Felicity Flora Florence Frances Freda Genevieve Georgina Grace Harriet Helena Henrietta Hilda Honoria Ida Imogen Isabel Isadora Irene Iris Ivy Jenna Josephine Julia Juliet Katherine Lavinia Letitia Lillian Louisa Lucille Lucinda Lucy Lydia Mabel Margaret Martha Mary Matilda Mildred Millicent Minerva Miranda Octavia Olive Ophelia Ottilie Penelope Perdita Philippa Philomena Phoebe Phyllis Portia Priscilla Rose Rosalind Sabrina Seraphina Susannah Sylvia Tatiana Theodora Theresa Victoria Verity Viola Violet Virginia Wilhelmina WinifredStill und geborgen, frei ohne Sorgenhttp://www.behindthename.com/pnl/185597

Beatrice Amelia, Benedict Tristan (dishonorable mention: Eustace Marcus)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 namesDS [5] Casper Harold
DD/DS/DD [2] Annabella Harriet / Eustace Marcus / Eleanora Lydia
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 ;)DS [12] Barnaby Laurence

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!DD [12] Theresa Winifred
