Sim names

[Swede1992]

Some of those names looks really weird to me, but maybe I'm too used to Swedish names.

If you have trouble finding names, choose a foreign one! Swedish names for instance are wayy old and with a lot of meaning that haven't been used for their original meanings for centuries; "Ivar" for instance comes from the mix of "yew" (as in a yew bow) and "warrior". Ivar came thus, according to some historians, to mean a form of 'guardian' or 'gate keeper', as yew bows were primarly a defensive weapon. Now say, isn't something like that an inventive name?

When you say the other names are weird - they are like the common names in UK/USA

This is quite helpful to see so many names.
[I tend to get stuck in a rut when naming Sims, I use the same names time and time again... boring really]
Anyways most of the time the names I use aren't used by most so here's a go...
Aiden (sometimes Aden)
Daniel
Kai (this is a girls name, can be a guys but I prefer the feminine form, pronounced K-eye)
Amaelia (I tend to combind regular names with Latin ones, so the 'ae' makes an 'eye' sound )
Rei, Re or Ray
Eira
Lise (I normally use the French version but it can really take any, the French way is pronounced "Leese")
Luke
and Lila
I have a few more, but the rut normally stays within this naming. hopefully someone can find good use of my names. Sorry if the pronunciation gets annoying, I like having weird sounding names but when I write them down people assume they are spoken differently and I just wanted to clarify.

I was just making some sims in CAS and made 3 toddlers. I didn't have my "list" of names stored in the working half of my brain at that moment, so I just made them up and have just realised they all rhyme  Ayma, Maeda and Shayra. I didn't even realise when I was making them! I'm going to keep a list of names on a piece of paper near the computer. Now I'll never have annoying names Yay!

My most recent batch of Sim kids had the lame alphabet theme.  A boy named Adrian and three girls named Bethany, Carina, and Danielle.

Thats a good idea Pam! I'll have to do that! I'm officially obsessed with having sim kids! I made a family with one woman Holly, a man, Min Lah and the three toddlers i spoke of in an earlier post, Ayma, Maeda and Shayra then Holly got pregnant and had Taylor then she got pregnant again, then i moved out Min Lah and now im ruined. (Don't ask why i moved him out, I was bored).
Im going to start the Asylum challenge next, my idea of names for that was just backwards words such as, Ynool Odreiw (Weirdo Loony) or words spelt weird Klummssie (Clumsy) Another idea is to look around and mould words together like lamp and door, Domp, Lomor, Darp, Malor. Sure they're wierd but its a simple way to choose names without your head hurting too much.

P.S. - How am i doing with my spelling and puncuation Pam? I'm trying a lot harder now.

Your spelling and punction looks better!  Thanks!  The only things I see in this last post are some capitalizations and apostrophes missing.

[Kauri The Sim]

OK! I'm going to be the worlds best speller in a few short decades!

Nothing evil meant, but there's quite an irony in that post since it's "punctuation" and not "punction" you mean.
There's no such word.

I just finished a legacy and all the kids had Italian names.......there was Luca,Marco,Rocco,Caterina,Dino,Aldo and a host of other names I can't remember.I sometimes like to give my game an International flair.Think my next legacy will be in honor of my Irish heritage....names like Declan,Patrick,Sean,Liam..........

Actually it is a word. It's just abbreviated and Pam was saving time.  I do that stuff constantly. My brain — which we all know does not operate at full capacity anyway — is ahead of my fingers, and so portions of words and even entire words are missing sometimes!

[Swede1992]

OK, Metro! I'm usually not the language cop around here, but if it is an abbreviation, it's nothing I've ever heard of before and in the context it seemed a little funny...
Can't picture it being a standard abbreviation at least...

[Pam]

Metro's just covering for me and being silly. 

[Metropolis Man]

Yeah, Swede, Pam knows my sense (or lack thereof) of humor.
