Hello there ! General Kenobi.

A few months ago, I started working on a hood based on @budgieflitter's Pleasantown. I didn't post much about it on Tumblr, but I did share some stuff about it on Discord, and I'm proud to announce it's getting pretty close to completion ! I am currently finishing the storytelling pictures, fixing up the character names and — that's the neat part — including a French translation for all the character names and bios, seeing as I'm a native speaker and couldn't resist keeping the absolutely iconic Maxis localizations of some names. Did you know Loki is named Lothaire and Vidcund is named Victor in French ? You do, now.

Here are some of the family pics as an appetizer ! Hope I'll be able to post here soon, because I have so much stuff to release that I want you guys to see.

I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE CARES BUT I SURE DO.

The GERMAN names for some of the Premades are making me fcking cry:

Pleasantview :

The Pleasants are named "Pretty" and i think that's beautiful

Mary Sue - Marie Claire (WHAT WERE U THINKIN Y TF "CLAIRE" HELLO)

Lillith - Lilli (Now her name doesn't have its great meaning i just cry)

The Broke houshold is named BROWN

Brandi - Babsi (BRO WHAT IS THIS WHO CALLS HER DAUGHTER BABSI?)

Beau - Bernd (A grandpa name)

Dustin - Detlef (THIS SOUNDS LIKE A HOMELESS MANS NAME I-)

The Dreamers aren't only Dreamers in the german version, no nono, their last name is DREAMDANCER

Darren - Hugo (literally why)

The Oldies surname is Oldiron, OLD IRON.

Movin over To Veronaville because oh boy Strangetown gets the crown when it comes to german names let me tell ya.

Veronaville :

Not a lot of change here but Tybalt is Theobald and Mercutio is Victorio

Puck - Piet

Bottom - Andrea (this is such a basic name for womans in their 40's 😭)

Goneril - Gerda (wHaT)

Albany - Albert (ok boomer)

Hal - Hans

Ariel - Elvira (???what)

Regan - Rita

Cornwall - Erich (Bro)

Ok and now i want to present to you the Strangest names:

Strangetown :

The Smith family is named Schmitt, thats like how every doctor in my area is named. The only change her is little Jill, whos name is Britta, again a name for a lady in their 40's (my opinion ok)

Many may know this, but the Specter houshoulds german surname is SPECK which means Bacon. BACON

Olive - Olivia (i like olive more because of olives garden but olivia sounds cute)

What if i tell you that the Beakers are bakers? Because thats what their german surname means.

And the worst is : Loki - Klausi (Klausi is literally a cat name omg Catboy Loki might be confi-)

My Courios boys got to keep their surname, but OH MY WATCHER I SWEAR, I TOUGHT VIDCUND WAS A BAD NAME, BUT GERMANY REALLY SAID : ,,i can do it better"

Lazlo - Lutz

Vidcund - (breath in and out...) Friedbert. (What on earth is that i am so mad and sad and just everything-)

Crystal Vu - Petra Kwiek(I DARE U TO TRY TO PRONOUNCE HER LAST NAME, CAUSE I CAN NOT-....poor bby..)

Singles :

Nothing but, uh...

Erin: Erna (i facepalm everytime i read This)

Ok and now i want to show you: #1 when it comes to weird and unfitting names that make me feel uncomfortable...

Ajay Loner is Lonely in german, and his new (really fucking unfitting) name is Arthur.

The Grunt Family

Or if we talk about the names in germany, the grunz familie (oink!)

Buzz - Fritz (this is so funny, cuz i can not take him seriously with this name)

Buck - Gerd (an old mans name ok)

Ripp - Richard (o m g i gotta say, i think it is kinda fitting, but Ripp is just so much better for them!!)

Tank - Theo (No just no)

That would be it! I made this list because i found it funny but at the same time just heartbreaking how the names are so weird in german sims 2. Anyway thank you for reading this i hope u had sum fun.

All the people that aren't included kept their original/english names!!
