I hope I am putting this in the right place this time....who creates all these names and do they designate them as male or female? I get guys named Moma and girls named Popa. I have to change the name of every female named Banga and the males named Dodo. Sometimes it is sooooo funny....

Yes, some of the names are a bit weird. I laughed when I got a girl named Pippa, because that word in Swedish is a very dirty one (the f-word in English)

In some cultures the male names end with an "a" and the female names with "i" or "o". Though I don't know if that's the case here - a lot of the women in VV have names that ends with "a".

I had twin girls who were named Moma and Papa. had to change cause it was funny, but i did get those names on other villagers, and it was Moma(female) Papa(male) so i married them and pretended they were the family from alabama, alot of families there the husband and wifes call each other mama and papa for the kids sake, and i think its cute, \:\)

I keep getting kids named Seven. Being a Star Trek fan I remember Voyager and the character Seven of Nine and I wonder if the creators are Trek fans too. \:\)

You could rename your tribe from what it is currently to "The Mama's and the Papa's"

The names are really funny. If one gets over on me I'll change it or if I get two with the samw name. My secon village only has 18 (serious population control) and I've had three with the same name.

One possibiiity for "Moma" is this: Chechen names frequently contain designations of domestic and wild birds: Khokha – a dove, Moma (muom) – a partridge;

I have had names like city, seven,mimoa,dodo. But I erase all the names and put a new first and last name. I did this in VV1 also.
I do that so that I know the boys from the girls when they die.
I give them last names from thier fathers and keep the family line going by parentage.
There not names that you would normally get on a tropical Island like,zantu,simoa,yuri,samari,tara etc...
But they are my people so I give them names like I would my own.
