I want to create a Xml file that looks something like this:

<Root xmlns:ns1="name1" xmlns:ns2="name2">
    <ns1:element1 />
    <ns1:element2 />
    <ns2:element3 />
</Root>

How can I accomplish this using XAttribute, XElement, XNamespace, and XDocument where the namespaces are dynamically added.
