Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

The pronunciation for the names are in reference are:

Adiy: عَدِيّ

Adyan: أَدْيَاْن

Humayl: هُمَيْل

We would recommend keeping the first or third name as they were the names of the sahaabah, namely ‘Adiy bin Haatim[1] and Humayl bin al-Damoon.[2]

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
