#Now if I saw Robin as having always been here I'd give them a wintery surname

I’ve been doing research on the sorts of names & surnames Orphans have been given through history, for my Sims save, because I just don’t personally see Bailey as the sort to want to give their own name to any of the orphans. The implications are just... They don’t seem like they’d like ‘em. And I’d say name them after the town or something similar but we don’t Know that - possibly intentionally.
So I’ve been a little bit torn between giving them all a basic shared orphan surname (Though idk what that’d mean. Might just look at the meanings of common foundling surnames and go from there to fit the UK setting?) and the other option of giving them different, but very obvious and simple surnames based on where or when they arrived.
(This of course having the exception of orphans that are old enough at arrival to already have names, of course. Like, Robin to me might have their own surname. Idk. The way they treat PC as being the older of them despite them being the same age lead to me headcanoning that Robin showed up as a little kid rather than as a baby)
How much use does Bailey get out of random name generators?
#for clara my thought is that she's the kid of a dead prior orphan#her bloodline is trapped at the orphanage kinda vibes#and her surname is the one given to her mum by the old caretaker#Now if I saw Robin as having always been here I'd give them a wintery surname#like Robin Snow or something#but i dont so i'm giving them the silly pun name i've seen other people give them that is Robin Banks#IDK#this is a big messy thought dump but i'd love to hear other peoples thoughts on this#Degrees of Lewdity#bailey the caretaker#DoL
