This is a remarkable thread. I am impressed by the knowledge so many of you have. Below are my two elven characters and the names I gave them. I tried to come as close as I could to actual name meanings, but may have taken some liberties just to make them sound like names.


MY ELVEN CHARACTERS


Wyndelleu Farothomir



meaning: Blue wind. Hunter of the gem.
Language: Nandorin
Alternate names: Hwestelu Farothomir (Sindarin), Hwestaluinë Farothomîrë (Quenyan)
As a Nandor from Lothlorien, I wanted to make sure all three elven cultures that are influential in that land were represented. I completely made up Wyndelleu as a possible Nandorin name, but was amazed that the Sindarin and Quenyan version (if I got them right) completely coincidentally sounds somewhat similar.



Rindalagan Tinnufal



Meaning: Crowned Harper of the Twilight Shores
Language: Sindarin
Alternate names: Rinandaro Falundómë (Quenyan)
As an ancient Sindar minstrel from Linden, Rindaligan has been known by many names, but most men of this age know him simply as Taligan or Taligand (The Harper). I believe the first name is correct, but I may have taken some liberties with the last name.
