This is what I used:How to correctly name the characters for incest?
someone help?
English is not my native language.
Genevive
Genevive: mom
me: son
what are they to each other?: family
Some people may use "mother" instead of mom. I think some dialogue/description sounds odd when I use that. The sentence "she's my mother" works and is common, but "she's my mom" also works. When speaking to her and the character says something like "Yeah! Mother makes the best waffles" it sounds odd to me. In my experience only certain types of upper class people call their parents "mother" or "father" when speaking to them. I'm not sure how common that is anymore - I don't know any upper class people - but I did hear a young child call his parents "mother" and "father" in a museum about 3 years ago.
Considering the humour of this game, the MC using "mother" would fit because it would be funny for a regular guy to do that.
Okay, that went a bit too deep, perhaps. On to the other relationships.
Cordelia
Cordelia: sister
me: brother
what are they to each other?: siblings
Cassandra
Cassandra: aunt
me: nephew
what are they to each other?: family
This game doesn't do sentence based case adjustment for the names you choose. This means that if you use Mom/Mother instead of mom/mother it will look right in some sentences. If you use mom/mother instead of Mom/Mother it will look right in some sentences. Neither will always look right. I go for the lowercase "mom" in all games. It seems to be right more often.
Note to Eris Discordia : consider using case adjustment so it always looks right in all sentences.
