Pick 3-6 words to describe their naming style: his- unique, international, word-names; hers -- traditional, simple

Ricky works for the US foreign service, meaning they move countries every few years. He speaks somewhere in the neighborhood of a dozen languages. Ada is a committed Anglican, and Ricky is an open-minded agnostic. They're recently married, but already eager to start a family. They are planning on a big one.Adoption information

Location: Washington D.C./travelers--DS: [nb][El-Mahalla El-Kubra, Egypt]Richard and Aderyn have adopted a baby boy from Egypt! Their new son comes from El-Mahalla El-Kubra and was given up for adoption because his father passed away and his mother already had a huge family who she could barely afford to look after.His first name is a word-name, place-name or surname-name which has a history of being used before the past decade. His middle name is a simple Arabic name which is no longer than four letters long and is easy to spell and say. It doesn't look too strange to English-speaking people.
