I'm preparing my ideas for six sims to start a new world together. I feel worn out with using my creativity and throat on plucking their names out from a wheel. I need help with traiting.
I've took their beginning letter from a wheel spin and mix up with their roommates first name letter as their last name. Diversing names alongside of German and Jewish. Just how it worked out, because I'm north american. Limited with rare letters like U, X, and H. H sounds rare because I choose Hans, and for X Xayvion. Was between Xayvion or Xylon, but with beside of Ulf. Xayvion is now rooted in there. Overwhelming my throat with Ulrich and Xenakis. However, also be easy on myself with Zook and Hamilton.
The six sims go together in three different household of two. The pairings are Zoey Hamilton and Hans Zook, Ulf Xenakis and Xayvion Ulrich, and Wilber Dixon and Donna Watson. I'm excited to start with them, bit feel worn out and can't piece my own head on how their traits be.
They will not be coupling their roommate, just the others and the BFFs which I'm going have them in that neighborhood. The wheel of fate choose this way even though Zoey and Hans sounds nice together a little.
I still picked out a little bit, but not sure quite if Ulf be a lone wolf or Xayvion be creative for his writing work he may or may not do.

Or I'll randomize their likes/dislikes and pick traits based off that.
Toddler trait: Randomized. I call this their "innate" trait. They're born with it and will dictate the rest of their life. I do not ever respin the trait, no matter what I get (even fussy).
Childhood trait: Chosen. I use either the Innate trait to choose the childhood trait OR their top skill if it's really lopsided. For example, an angelic toddler may get the trait good or cheerful whereas an independent toddler may get the self-assured trait or conversely a trait that is meant to denote being more of a loner. A toddler that maxes out on social but not any other skills may get the outgoing trait.
Teen trait: Randomized. I call this their rebel trait because it's not based on their parents or their innate trait. It's completely random and is part of them growing up and figuring themselves out. I never change or re-roll this trait UNLESS it somehow contradicts the innate trait or their attained skills. (A max in social skill is not getting socially awkward if it rolls to that).
YA trait: Chosen. I call this their Hereditary trait because as people get older they tend to turn into their parents or just pick up their parent's habits. I choose one trait that is from either one of their parents. If their chosen childhood trait or randomized teen trait was already a hereditary trait, I choose something based on their acquired skills, aspiration, likes/dislikes etc.
