I've noticed it too and I'm not sure how I feel about it. On one hand, it's interesting to see what kid you get, but as Corylea said, it's kind of nice to have the family look like a family!

I really like so many of your names. Are those random names or names you are picking on your own? Because, if they are randomly generated, you are hitting the jackpot!! I especially love little Finley in your 2nd generation there And I currently have the multicolored hair like your Orchid. She was a 2nd generation child that I chose to take the house in my 3rd gen. Her name is Betty which is maybe the most normal name I've had generated so far lol.

I have a long list of names I like that I choose from when a new baby is born. I don't have a theme or system. Lol, I just pick a random name from the list. I find it difficult to remember a lot of the names from the game so I end up getting my little people confused. And plus, I really love names. I've kept name lists since I was kid. This game gives me the perfect opportunity to use them. :P

Being a nerd, I've often just used names of favorite characters in books/movies/television shows (usually based on if there's any resemblance), but that's gotten to be a little boring lately so I might try your trick. And I'm a name lists person too! I've also kept lists since I was a kid and I honestly check babynames on the web quite frequently just to see what's trending and so on.

Oh yes, I am constantly looking for new names. My lists consist of 100 girl names and 100 boy names. They range from very traditional to very trendy, and everything in between. Lol! If you ever need suggestions I'd gladly post my lists.

I think that the genetics works a little bit different in VF2 however I like the fact that both of my families look like real families (except for few exceptions :D). I like the fact that I don't get the same looking kids again and again. I used to get kids that looked exactly like either their parents or siblings all the time and it was so boring. I have few examples when a kid looked like their parent or grandparent so far but none of the siblings looked alike except for twins and triplets of course Family N1 Family N2 None of the kids were adopted except for the last girl in gen 3 family 1 and second boy in gen 1 family 2. Family 2 picture is a little bit out of date I have started a new generation and they have 3 kids so far 2 girls and one boy but again they all look very similar Lol, I totally agree. This picture shows my 3rd and 4th generations. All the kids are biological in generations 3 and 4. I love the range of differences between them all. And I must say, you are lucky in the multiples department. I have yet to have multiples. I was quite lucky in VF1 because I would have them frequently. I am hoping the next generation will produce some twins or triplets.
