It just occurred to me that not many people knew that Rachel Summers and Franklin Richards dated in the comics.
This relationship occurred during Chris Claremont and John Byrne's run on the X-Men, though let's clarify that the relationship was between Rachel and the Earth-811 version of Franklin, and in alternative futures of that same Earth, had Days of Future Past not happened, they would have married and had children, who might have been:
Jonathan Reed Richards (Hyperstorm).was the first and most "iconic" child to appear in the comics, debuting in the 90s (specifically '95) in the Fantastic Four comic, a family he doesn't care much for (from the beginning it's mentioned that he despises them, and the family he does care for is the Summers, clarifying that in my opinion it's because he was a momma's boy). He regularly appeared as a villain to his paternal family, who, unable to defeat him (not even with the help of Doom or Kang, though Kang's help was irrelevant and unnecessary at best), decided to lure Galactus to absorb Jonathan's power (though it's actually explained that this is his life force, so he's believed to be dead, but I doubt). It's briefly mentioned that he has his mother's eyes and his father's hair, so he's believed to be blonde with green eyes, although Doom is the one who mentions it, and I'm not willing to endorse that as a reliable source.
David Richards is the second child shown of Rachel and Franklin. He's depicted as a redhead with blue eyes, debuting in the Exiles comic, where it's shown that during his childhood he saw his mother die in a mutant concentration camp at age 7/8. He was rescued and then raised by a version of Sabretooth. It's unknown if he met or bonded with Franklin, but it's safe to say he was very close to Rachel during his early years, so much so that he inherited the Phoenix Force from her. He has a strong similarity to Nate Grey, as, like X-Man with Cable, David is considered the alternative version of Jonathan (though it was never confirmed). Sabretooth tried to kill him and almost succeeded, if not for David having the Phoenix Force and his chronokinesis power.
Dream Richards is the only daughter (and last descendant) presented to us of Rachel and Franklin. She was a member of the resistance against the Sentinels, where she was known as Marvel Girl. She was a redhead with amber/hazel eyes (this varies). She's described as optimistic and kind, and she's also Franklin's only child who shows affection for him and the Fantastic Four. The last time she was mentioned/shown, she was alive and happy.
By the way, my favorite was David, who, in my opinion, is the best written (which is quite a feat since he only appears in #12 issues if I recall correctly) and the one you grow fondest of, since he's introduced to you when he was 8 years old and you watch him grow and almost die.
And in my mind, David's middle name is Alexander, and Dream's first name is Jeannie (though I debated it a lot because I liked Elaine or Susan more).Rachel and Franklin chose these names to honor loved ones and close friends.
Jonathan Reed is clearly in homage to Franklin's uncle and father, Jonathan "Johnny" Storm and Reed Richards. And my delulu mind says Rachel agreed to call him Jonathan just so she could call him Nathan.
David Alexander is for Alexander "Alex" Summers, Rachel's uncle, and for David Haller, with whom Rachel gets along very well in the comics.
Jeannie comes from Jean Grey, obviously, and Dream was solely Franklin's idea; Rachel couldn't veto it because she was recovering from childbirth, and by the time she recovered, it was too late to intervene.
