Sorry for asking you this. I’m not very good at making up names for my characters so I’m going to have to ask you this. Let’s just say that the royal family in this fantasy kingdom is a family of eight consisting of a King and a Queen, with the other six being their daughters and their sons (King and Queen’s children). The King is the father, the Queen is the mother and the King and Queen have a son and five daughters. Their son is their eldest child, and their second eldest child is their eldest daughter. Their last child in their family is also their youngest child and is also their youngest daughter. So the list of the King and Queen’s six children is as follows from eldest to youngest:<br><br>- Eldest: Their son<br>- Second Eldest: Their eldest daughter<br>- Third Eldest: Their second eldest daughter<br>- Fourth Eldest: Their third eldest daughter<br>- Fifth Eldest: Their fourth eldest daughter<br>- Youngest: Their youngest daughter and also their fifth eldest daughter<br><br>Now, let’s pretend that the King and Queen give all six of their children names beginning with T or D. Let’s pretend that the King and Queen give all five of their daughters names beginning with T, and that they give their son a name beginning with D. The second eldest daughter (the King and Queen’s eldest daughter) and the youngest daughter (the King and Queen’s youngest daughter who is also their fifth eldest daughter) have names beginning with the letter “T”. So that means that all five of the King and Queen’s daughters have names beginning with “T”, and that their son has a name beginning with “D”. Now, let me give you a list of the three most important rules which will help you formulate possible names for the royal family:<br><br>Rule 1: The names must be fantasy names and not names commonly used in the real world. The only exceptions to this are David, Daniel, Davina, Danielle, Daphne and Dominic, and also Diana, Thomas, Theresa and Tiffany. <br><br>Rule 2: The names that you give the King and Queen’s eldest and youngest daughters must have the letter “T”. <br><br>Rule 3: The names that you give the King and Queen’s eldest and youngest daughters must be different, and cannot be the same name. <br><br>Now armed with these three rules, please help me come up with names for the King and Queen’s six children.
