Since the honoree's name is Richard Estes, those are the
base words. You do not Latinize a name by changing the original
spelling to a Latin one. You do that by the suffix. You
would take Richard and add the appropriate masculine latin ending or the
entire name Richard Estes and do the same. The author did combine
the two names, so the Ricardo part is not correct (is it?) because
this is a different name from Richard. That is the essence, I
think. The latinization applies to the whole new name, in
this case richardestes. The Latinization applies to the endings on
richardestes not the two parts, richard and estes. If you change
Richard to Ricardo, then you change the honoree. Although I know
Richard Estes, I would have no idea who Ricardo Estes is, and that is not
what the Code intends. The Code intends to preserve the honor
but there are a few rules to be followed.
