ArchivesRe: Mike C.: Lord of the Rings names?
in reply to a message by Yahalome
Hi Yahalome,
I am also a fan of Tolkien's works, especially the really neat world and languages he created for them. Short of maybe Frodo, Bilbo and Gandalf, I will not be adding more Tolkien names in the near future. There are still so many real-world names that need to be added.
I know, or know of, people named Galadriel, Arwen and Rohan (the Rohan was named after the region in the books, it was not the Indian name of the same spelling).

Yeah, for a name site like this, there shouldn't be a lot of names people won't use. Mebbe I'll create a Tolkien name site in the near future?!? My parents have been fans for a long time and so I grew up hearing and reading and discussing it. It's funny, if you do your own thing, sooner or later it'll become mainstream. Have you been to www.lordoftherings.net ? :)
P.S. My Tolkien pseudonym is Orethule, meaning wind or spirit, made from the two Tengwar, Ore and Thule, with identical meanings. ;)

Me too....
I know a Galadriel... and (strangely) a Cerin named after Cerin Amloth (is that the right place?)
