I absolutely love the name Gandalf! It sounds so earthy and strong, this is a nice name! And I’d use it if I felt brave enough. Also, the associations with The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit make for some whimsical background information for this particular name. Also I love the meaning of it, which is wand elf, or elf of the wand. It only makes it more whimsical! Gandalf is definitely one of my favorite names in general, because it is very rare, yet somehow, people have heard this name. All due to literature. But still, it manages to be rare and unique among other sorts of names. Which I appreciate very greatly! πŸ˜ƒ.
