The father is a spellcaster with a Curse of Unwarranted Hostility which means other sims will randomly attack him - his reputation is atrocious. While both of these sims are supernatural, their reputation has gone bad without me purposefully trying to make it bad. So bad reputation is definitely a thing that can happen although it may not be very common.
Yes, the same thing happened to one of my spellcasters, too. She would constantly get into public fights with NPCs that were started by them, not her, and her reputation was awful within days. She was also famous, though, so that might have added to it.
I've noticed that newly created sims in my game usually start out with a slightly negative reputation for some reason.
