Hey fellow duck-enthusiasts!
For the last couple days i have been researching Daisys genealogy A LOT. I have mainly been using the updated version of Gilles' family tree by LP, for navigation, but i have come up with a few of the ideas myself.
A lot of the ducks have never been named or/and drawn, so if some of you could help me out with finding the names or drawings, i would be very pleased! And if you wanna come up with some names for the ones that are not mentioned in any stories, then feel free to, because im planning on drawing Daisys family tree.
Daisy's sister (AMJ's mother) was mistakenly identified as "Rosa" by some computerized search, which misinterpreted Don Rosa's name as the sister's name. I think I have that right: Scrooge MacDuck would be able to say exactly. Anyway, some fans have adopted this name. It seems appropriate that Daisy's sister would also have a flower name! Also on the fanon front: some fans identify the unidentified female duck at Scrooge's birthday party in The Birthday Booby Trap as Daisy's sister, though others think that is unlikely. You can find both opinions about that identification on this forum.
In my headcanon, the sister is named Rosa, she is the duck pictured in Birthday Booby Trap, and her husband's name is Julio Mallardez--my invention. This gives him a month name to inspire the month names for their triplets. (Another option would be Augusto, but that just makes me think of Pinochet!) I like introducing a Hispanic character into the central Duckworld. The last name was one of the many Duck names of various ethnicities which Rob Klein suggested years ago! (not for AMJ, just for general use) We established here that April, May and June have never officially been given a last name.
Not suggesting that you should put those names on your tree! Just trying to clarify what is officially known, what is unknown, what fans have come up with.

Yeah, ive read those posts over and over again, but thanks a lot anyway! I like the name Rosa for Daisys sister, but i wish we had an official name. I really like the idea of the unknown duck in Birthday Booby Trap to be AMJs mother though. Who else could it be?
If i dont get any names/images i think ill just draw and find names for the characters myself.
From Wikipedia: "According to the unofficial timeline of Don Rosa, Daisy was born in 1920. According to Rosa, Daisy is Donald's sister-in-law – Daisy's brother had married Donald's twin sister, Della Duck, and together, the two became the parents of Huey, Dewey, and Louie Duck. This is his explanation of why the triplets tend to call her "Aunt Daisy" while no such courtesy is given to Gladstone Gander for example. Don Rosa has said that he considers Donald and Daisy to be nonrelated and that Duck simply is the Duckburg universe equal to Smith, being a common surname." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daisy_Duck
In Donald's Diary, she has triplet brothers who look like Huey, Dewey, and Louie.
I could be wrong, but I think she says Zio Paperone in the Italian stories, in the Brazilian ones it ends up happening, he is called "Tio Patinhas", but in DuckTales it was always Patinhas McPato or Mr. Patinhas.
