Newbie -- "a newcomer or novice, an inexperienced user of computers in general" A parody of the word "newbie" meaning that they are new to the game.
Brandi Newbie -- Simply means "brandy" from the English name of an alcoholic drink.
Bob Newbie(Brandi's father) -- Short for Robert, meaning "bright fame".
Betty Newbie (Brandi's mother) -- Short for Elizabeth, meaning "my god is oath".
Bob Newbie Sr. (Brandi's paternal grandfather) -- Short for Robert, meaning "bright fame".
Mags Newbie (Brandi's paternal grandmother) -- Possibly meaning pearl
The Newbie Family was the one in the Sims 1 for "novice and inexperienced" users of the Sims. It was the tutorial family of the game. Bob's name fits, seeing as he had fame since every novice Sims player eventually played him (that is, if they followed the tutorial and the arrow pointing toward the Newbie lot). Mainly, this family has been added so that players could relate to Sims 1.
