Woo, you are 75% of the way there! There are a lot of fun naming themes. :) What about games (like card/table games.) You could have Poker, Gin, Hearts, etc. That could be sort of interesting.

Oh yes! good one! And then Gin reminded me of alcohol, so now I need a generation (or two ;) ) of that!

Hi! That's quite the achievement to unlock, I can't lie, I've debated on attempting it myself.

How about: Dog Breeds, Cat Breeds and types of Clothing? (A sim named "Sock" amuses me greatly. LOL)

I don't know if this will collide with Disney characters but: Grimm's Fairytales.

And maybe Roald Dahl characters too?

Periodic elements? Like, each column of the table for one generation? I know a legacy/ISBI/DIFTFT that’s doing that.

This is a good idea! Maybe too broad for me for a single generation. But I'll definitely be using this in a different aspect of this challenge!

I already have dog and cat breeds (great minds think alike!) but I'll definitely be adding types of clothing because I also LOVE the idea of a sim named Sock! And his twin brother Shoe!

Ooooh! I love the Grimm Fairytales! I can spread it out far enough from Disney that it won't be too big of a problem. (I mean, it is 100 generations lol)

And I love the Roald Dahl idea as well! Added!

Oh my gosh, this is hilarious! I'm definitely adding this!

Oh! I love this! And it's so easy! I could do this one a few times!

Oh you know me! I just can't NOT make my own life crazy lol And I've added both of these ideas to the list! And don't worry, I'll convince you to come to the dark side! 8-) 8-)

Anime characters such as: Bleach, Naruto, Sailor Moon, InuYasha, My Hero Academia, Little Witch Academia, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Soul Eater. Or classics like She-Ra or He-Man from the 80's. There's eleven generations right there.

I added Bleach and Naruto since those were my two favorites as a kid. I didn't watch any of the other ones so I won't add those. Thanks Ani!

How about names from specific languages - I like to use Celtic names, but there are others that are unique.
