Van and Elizabeth are expecting a daughter. Her initials are EA like her brother.

---

Eleni is married and has two daughters. Her husband's first, middle, and last names are Arabic. Their daughter's first names are Arabic and their middle names are Greek. They have their father's last name.

---

Petra met her new boyfriend at a social group for former teen parents. He has two children from a previous relationship, a ten-year-old son and a nine-year-old daughter. Her boyfriend's first name is classic but not Biblical and his middle name is a form of John. His last name ends in -son. His children were both born in December and have Christmas-y first names (feel free to interpret that however you see fit). His daughter's middle name is related to Elizabeth and his son's middle name is a form of John, but not the same form as his father's name.

---

Niko has a girlfriend. Her parents were hardcore hippies in the 60s/70s and her name reflects that.

Sandy and Rose are expecting a surprise fourth baby! They've decided not to find out the sex. If it's a girl, her first name is from this list: http://nameberry.com/list/240/Cool-Girl-Names-from-Ancient-Cultures?all=1 and her middle name is Biblical. If it's a boy, his first name is Biblical and his middle name is from this list: http://nameberry.com/list/241/Cool-Boy-Names-From-Ancient-Cultures?all=1.

---

Jamie and Peter have a newborn daughter. They're not really sure what they want to name her and are open to anything that sounds good with Finlay, Jonah, and Iris. Her middle name is Maori.

Katerina and Aidan are now married and have a two-year-old son. Katerina is expecting their last child, a boy. Both children have one Irish name, one Russian name, and one Khazak name. You choose the order -- it doesn't have to be the same as their daughter's name.

---

Sarah and Feliks have been feeling like someone is missing from their family since shortly after Zofia was born. After much soul-searching they began the adoption process, and recently they brought home a toddler boy from the same orphanage in Ethiopia that Sarah was adopted from. Her first name is Polish but not too hard for English-speakers, and her middle name is her Amharic birth name.

---

Gabriel and Jennifer have a one-year-old boy. He has a nature first name like his big sisters, but not a really unusual or out-there one. His middle name is Finnish.
