Notes:

Nadia is the daughter of Hank Pym and his first wife, Maria Trovaya. Although her parents were Hungarian and American, Nadia was likely born in Russia. She shares many surface characteristics with Red Queen of the MC2 universe, alias Hope Pym, the adult daughter of Hank and Janet van Dyne. This was lampshaded in Avengers, Inc. #5 when Hank and Nadia met, and Pym mentioned Maria intended to name their daughter "Hope". After coming to America, Nadia Trovaya or Nadia Pym was legally adopted by the Wasp, making her Nadia van Dyne.
