Help with Baby Name Ideas Based on Packs
In my pack challenge I've had quite fun with coming up with name-themes based on the pack themselves, and making sure the next generation gets appropriate names based on the pack they're "born in" if that makes sense. For BG I used the three base game worlds as inspiration: Willow, Sandy and Neo were the kids, living in Willow Creek, Oasis Springs and Newcrest respectively as adults. Next pack up was Seasons and names came easy: weather and holidays, and so Sandy named her son Sunny and Willow her daughter Christmas (if Neo had had any kids they would have been named things like Rain, Storm and Gale, but he and his husband just weren't that into the idea of kids. Probably for the best considering...) Now we're on the next gen and two packs are open. My Wedding Story for Sunny's kids (dead easy, names connected to romance, so Valentine, Love, Cherish...) and Growing Together for Christmas' kids. This is where it gets trickier. I have a hard time settling on a theme. At the moment I have three ideas for themes, family (Harmony, Unity), growth (Journey, Quest) or San Sequoia Locations (Hope, Gilbert, Marina, Harbor) - but I'm not convinced by either theme entirely. So I'm asking for help. What are good name themes for Growing Together? And for other packs? I have a few ideas for some packs: Get to Work: names connected to vocation (Baker, Tanner) Cottage Living: plant based names (Lily, Rose) Discover University: Scientists or Authors (Austen, Newton) City Living: Actual cities (London, Houston)
More items for the wood working skill
The skill just feels a little bare to me. Especially when you consider how many things you can make with wood working in real life. It would be so cool if we could carve wooden toys for toddlers/kids, more furniture options or a few more sculpture options like abstract wood sculptures, birds, llamas, or cats, dogs, foxes as a reference to the pets pack.
✂️Hair Salon & Head Spa ✂️
I for one would like to have something from the past brought back and & Improved. For this I am suggesting The Hair Salon & Head Spa. My I idea leans heavily in the head Spa Trend but I think there is a lot of room to work with here by combining them. Perhaps with this we could get an improvement to return to hair customization like they had in Sims 3. Without further ado... Update Sims 4 hair style to incorporate sections of the hair Root, Shaft, Ends and make the color be CUSTOMIZABLE like they did in Sims 3. The Hair Salon has different rooms. The first is Reception & Spa is The Swan Next is the Consultation Room - They analyze the scalp here. Text comes the Hair Washing Stations Next Comes the Steam Machine & Haircuts if needed They also have color not just cut
Dynasty Pack?
After the Royalty Expansion Pack was released, I really couldn't help but feel like it could be expanded to include a more Imperial China/Dynasty selection. Like including the titles of Emperor/Empress, Crown Prince, etc. Including traditional Hanfu/Imperial clothing and customization items for the sims. But also, the BUILD ITEMS!! I know we have Snowy Escape which kind of gives us a bit of a modern structure of Ming/Quing/Tang/etc. builds... but I would so love to see a whole Game Pack specifically for ancient China's architecture/build/clothing/gameplay/etc. I LOVE building in this game, and it would be nice to have a pack with detailed, intricate Imperial/Dynasty options. Like statues, bridges, gazebos, lanterns, etc. Maybe this is just me, and honestly, I get it if it's not exactly a popular want/demand. I can't even find CC for this kind of build-style. Oh well, this is just food for thought.
