It will be a true test to find out whether their bond as twins can overcome their differences.

The '''Pleasant family''' has grown bigger in the years following ''[[The Sims]]''. [[Jeff Pleasant|Jeff]] and [[Diane Pleasant]] are deceased, [[Jennifer Pleasant]] marries [[John Burb]] and has one child, [[Lucy Burb|Lucy]]. [[Daniel Pleasant]] marries [[Mary-Sue Pleasant|Mary-Sue Oldie]] and they have twin girls, [[Angela Pleasant|Angela]] and [[Lilith Pleasant|Lilith]].
Line 67 ⟶ 78:
The family lives at [[215 Sim Lane]] and has a net worth of §104,000, of which §2,250 is in funds. They will be able to pay their bills, but Mary-Sue's [[Fortune]] Sim wants for stuff will be hard to satisfy.
 
The Pleasants appear in a [[Television#The Sims 2|televised]] [[pizza]] commercial, and seem to appear in one of the programs on the "Sims Broadcasting Network" channel. A Sim who appears to be Angela Lilith slaps one who appears to be LilithAngela, then the Sim who appears to be Lilith complains about [[hunger]].
 
In ''The Sims'', it is mentioned that Jeff, Diane, and their family is new to the [[Neighborhood 1|neighborhood]]. They do not appear in [[Sunset Valley]] or [[Riverview]], even though Jeff and Diane would have been teens, or maybe even children, at that time. This is probably because they are new to the neighbourhood at the start of ''The Sims''. Seeing as the events of ''The Sims 3'' takes place before the events of ''The Sims'', this is possibly the most likely assumption.
 
The family reappears in [[Sunlit Tides]], a neighborhood which can be downloaded from The Sims 3 Store. In this prequel to the Pleasantview chronology, Daniel and Mary-Sue are young adult newlyweds who are on their honeymoon on a tropical island.
 
In ''[[The Sims 4]]'', Daniel, Mary-Sue, Angela and Lilith can be downloaded from the official Maxis [[The Sims 4 Gallery|Gallery]] profile. Older versions of Angela and Lilith are also present in ''[[The Sims 4: Discover University]]'' as university students living in [[Britechester]].

Line 80 ⟶ 93:
'''Jennifer Burb''' -- (Daniel's sister) -- Popular name meaning "fair, white, smooth"
'''Mary-Sue Pleasant''' -- Mary Sue is a term for fictional characters that are portrayed in an overly idealized way, and lack noteworthy or realistic flaws. Also, one of the main characters of the film ''Pleasantville'' (as opposed to Pleasantview) became named Mary Sue when she entered the titular neighborhood.

Line 86 ⟶ 99:
'''Angela Pleasant''' -- The name derives from the heavenly angels.
'''Lilith Pleasant''' -- Meaning "of the night". This name was a demon in ancient Assyrian myths. In Jewish and Islamic tradition, she was Adam's first wife but was replaced by Eve. Offspring of Adam and Lilith were the evil spirits of the world.
'''Jeff Pleasant''' (Daniel's dad) -- Means either "territory peace", "stranger peace", "hostage peace" or "god's peace".
Line 107 ⟶ 120:
 
'''Anastasia Marsh''' (John's maternal grandmother) -- Means "resurrection".

|listmembers = *[[Angela Pleasant]]
No real relation there. All names seem to fit in quite nicely. The name Lilith seems to be very fitting to her character, but holds a really bad reputation. Angela's name is the most obvious, but fitting. Mary-Sue has the "wanting-to-be-perfect" role in the family. Daniel is "Judged by God" for cheating on his wife. Jennifer's name can describe her appearance.

==Trivia==
* A [[Suzanne Pleasant]] appears in ''[[w:c:SimCity:SimCity 3000|SimCity 3000]]'' as the representative of the Have a Nice Day Club, which is described as originally being for divorced women. While there is no reason to assume that she necessarily ''is'' a missing family member, as people do share surnames without being related (and since it's more than likely that the development team forgot all about her), there is certainly room for players to envision her as the ex-wife of one of the Pleasants.
* An episode of the British sitcom ''[http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/:Outnumbered (British TV series)|Outnumbered]]'' shows two characters playing a fictionalisedfictionalized version of a ''Sims''-like computer game, with characters purportedly based on the show's central family. However, when the computer screen is shown, it is unmistakably the Pleasant Family of ''The Sims 2'' being played, with Lilith as the active character.
