I got to the point where I was ready to merge and a screen came up saying "a first, last, or organization name must be entered for this contact." I'm not sure where to enter that? Thanks!

When you map fields from your csv file to TntMPD's fields.  Be sure to map to the First/Given Name and the Last/Family Name fields.  Every contact in TntMPD must have a first name or a last name.  Or if it's an organization (like a church), it must have an organization name.

I am encountering the same probelm.  And my csv file has the last name, first name, title of individuals but it's still telling me I need to enter those in order to import.  Any suggestions?

Your csv file might have those fields, but did you map them to the "First/Given Name", "Spouse First/Given Name" and "Last/Family Name" fields in TntMPD?

Can you include childrens' names in the import?

Yes, there's a "Children" field you can import into.
