I've discovered that the next book has several Chinese characters appearing. I've got what is basically a Triad (or mainland Chinese criminal organization, if you prefer), and need some characters to populate it. Some will likely just be referred to, but I'm going to need names for about a dozen people, I think. I've figured out that the families mostly hail from Guangdong province, living in and around Guangzhou.
If it were just one or two people, I could probably figure out the names, but I've realized this is going to get kind of involved, so I need help.
There's going to be one main patriarch, along with a brother of his and a cousin of theirs. There will be two uncles as well. These men would all be in their 50s to mid-60s, so born in the mid-1950s to the mid-1960s.
I need four sons as well, for the patriarch, the cousin, and the two uncles. These guys will be in their 20s.
The brother will have a daughter (who's going to turn out to be one of the good guys, sort of) as well as a son, also both in their 20s. The son is the younger of the two.
So I end up needing:

- Patriarch, wife, and son
- Patriarch's cousin, wife and son
- Patriarch's uncle 1, wife and son. Let's make these his father's brothers, in case that matters.
