Line 14:
It seems to me that the rule should go something like:
*If the household's name equals 50% or more of the inhabitants' last names AND they are related, the household is a family. (ie. A married couple with different last names would be a "family" if the household name was one of their's. However, two house mates that are not related would be a "household" even if both their last names were the same as the household name)
*If the household name does not equal 50% or more of
*The household or family name should be as the game presents it with only "family" or "household" appended to the end.
: To clarify, the [[Jones-Brown family]] would indeed be called a family as, although only one of the three inhabitants has that last name, it it clearly derived from her parents' names. However the [[Bird family|Bird Sisters Household]] (which is called the Bird Family on this wiki) should be called the "Bird Sisters household" as there is no "Bird" household in the game.
