View Full Version : names drive me nutty
Tibbs 05-08-2005, 07:51 PM I'm writing one of those GI fanfics where their kids get stranded on the island. Professor and Ginger are married and have two girls, and Gilligan and Mary Ann are married and have one boy, one girl. Also, the Howells have two grandsons. Skipper's gonna have a relative in there somewhere, I just haven't thought up he/she yet. Okay, reason of this post is that I HAVE A HUGE DILEMMA! :eek: I can't think up names for these kids! :confused: I know their names should be popular from the 60s-70s era, but I have no idea what Ginger and the Professor would likely name their kids. And Mary Ann would probably name her kids something old fashioned. I am so not good at thinking up good names because there are millions of them out there! :bouncers So, if any of you have any suggestions, tell me ASAP, I'm desparate! :help
:thanks:
Céline 05-08-2005, 11:48 PM The pro+ G's:Amber and Samantha
G + MA's:Jonathan and Megan
Howell's grand sons:Randall and Preston
The Skipper's nephew:Bill
Céline 05-09-2005, 01:12 PM Another suggestion:
Ginger and the professor:Penelope and Roxanne
Mary Ann and Gilligan:Gilbert and Amy
The Howell's grand-sons:Andrew and Percival
Skipper's nephew:Patrick
Sterling Holobyte 05-09-2005, 01:27 PM Ginger would probably want one of her kids named "Star". That's a given I think. :cool: ;)
Tibbs 05-09-2005, 04:41 PM Thanks for the ideas! :wave:
Tibbs 05-09-2005, 05:40 PM Thanks for the ideas! :wave:
Ok I have outlined the characters along with their names, and I liked your ideas so here are the names:
Proffy/Ginger's kids
Amber Hinkly
Samantha Hinkly
Gilligan/Mary Ann's Kids
Jonathan "Jon" Gilligan
Megan "Meg" Gilligan
Howells' grandsons:
Randall Howell
Andrew Howell
Skipper's grandnephew
Bill Grumby
Thanks Celine for those names!
And Sterling Holobyte, I did agree with you on "Star", but I was also liking Amber real well, so I did use Star as her middle name which will be used a couple times in my fanfic, you'll see why if you ever read it. :D
Thanks guys! :wave:

Yeah Celine those are good names. :)
Céline 05-09-2005, 07:03 PM Thanks!Those were the names I would use if I ever do a fanfic,you're welcome to use them.It's not hard for me to find names(I already have other ideas) it's more on my writing that I got to work on.Can't wait to read your story:)
Glad to help :wave:
Tibbs 05-14-2005, 09:45 PM Yay Progress Report! (no not those little papers you get signed for school)
Just so you don't get the idea that I'm completely abandoning this fic, I'll tell ya how its coming so far:
I've got the kids' names, their personalities, etc. Plus what they're going to look like. (Now, the big, long, drawn out sigh :o ) That's all I have...(I know I know, I'll get on it! :eek: ) But yeah, its not that this fic is going to be hard to write, I just don't know how they're going to end up on the island. I don't wanna use the boat thing cuz 1.) Other people have already had that idea, and 2.) I seriously doubt any of these kids would know how to drive a boat themselves. :confused: Yet I really don't see how else they'd get on that doggone island! :crazy: I'm so befuddled with this, I keep running into these dilemmas! :seeya:
So, if any of you people have any ideas, please help me, the sooner I figure this out, the sooner I can start writing this thing! :idea:
In the meantime, while waiting for a response, I'll be writing *trying* to write some of this story without the first part, which should be a challenge. :stressed: :bored:
:2help :banana:

lol, thats great, you come up with some good ideas Celine, its creative! :)
Céline 05-14-2005, 11:09 PM Thanks!It could be a reunion for the castaways also ;)
mrs.gingerhinkley 01-26-2007, 09:59 PM Good names. Can't wait to see what their kids turn out like! Hmm... what they should look like... Eee.. I don't know. Little Gilligan would be just ADORABLE! Or it would be sooooo funny to see one of Ginger and Roys' kids to raddle off the periodic table of elements at age 5! Meanwhile, the other one is performing "There's No Buisness Like ShowBuisness" I really don't know what those kids would be like. I don't think any of them would be mean or snotty... DON'T MAKE THEM MEAN OR SNOTTY! (Please:))
But, yeah, I'm looking forward to the story, sounds SWELL (favorite word right there!)(I'm so wierd) I'll love anything that pairs up Ginger and Roy!
:love:
