Wow, wasn't expecting that to be right! Erm, have a simple one :)

Rhyming is dangerous.

mormegil 06-06-2006 10:39 AM

Rimbaud

Perilous poet.

Kath 06-06-2006 10:52 AM

That's the one morm, take it away.

mormegil 06-06-2006 11:06 AM

Let's see how this one goes.

My pronunciation I keep secret.

Kath 06-06-2006 11:44 AM

OK I have two guesses. I want to say them now so I don't worry about being told they're wrong later :D

Bethberry or burrahobbit.

JennyHallu 06-06-2006 11:49 AM

paavo?

Orominuialwen 06-06-2006 12:43 PM

Davem? I remember there being some confusion about whether his name was pronounced dave-em or da-vem.

symestreem 06-06-2006 12:50 PM

Wow... Orominuialwen, you could be a candidate yourself! How do you say your name?

Orominuialwen 06-06-2006 12:56 PM

Or-oh-min-ooh-ee-AL-wen. At least that's how I say it, but my Quenya and Sindarin (it's sort of a mix of the two) pronunciation is notoriously bad.

mormegil 06-06-2006 01:00 PM

None of the above, sorry. She, yes it's a female, mentioned this specifically in a certain thread.

Kath 06-06-2006 01:13 PM

Fea?

mormegil 06-07-2006 02:38 PM

No and she's in the top 60 of total rep. That should narrow it down a bit.

Valier 06-07-2006 02:53 PM

Could it be Thinlomien?

Anguirel 06-07-2006 02:53 PM

Surely

Marileangorifurnimaluim

mormegil 06-07-2006 03:03 PM

None of the above, she has come and said that her pronunciation is a secret that perhaps she doesn't know for certain.

symestreem 06-07-2006 03:31 PM

Roa_Aoife?

mormegil 06-07-2006 03:39 PM

No but this person PMed me and guessed it was her correctly. She said she wouldn't post the answer but if she feels so inclined she may.

Kath 06-07-2006 04:16 PM

Roa?

Diamond18 06-07-2006 05:06 PM

If I make take the liberty of two guesses:

Maeggaladiel

or

Amanaduial the archer



But I think it's Maeggaladiel....

Valier 06-07-2006 05:10 PM

I believe Maeggaladiel is a guy.:)

Glirdan 06-07-2006 05:15 PM

I'm inclined to guess Oromin, yet I don't think it's her...

mormegil 06-07-2006 05:22 PM

None of the above...let me narrow this down even further. Her rep has carried her into at least the top 30.

Glirdan 06-07-2006 05:26 PM

Then my next guess is Celuien.

Valier 06-07-2006 05:28 PM

How 'bout Diamond18?

mormegil 06-07-2006 05:58 PM

Nope though if you keep guessing you'll eventually be correct. I believe the thread where she stated this was the one about Fordim and the difficulty in spelling some fellow Downers names. However the conversation evolved into pronunciation. I haven't located the thread but it really should be that tough now.

Diamond18 06-07-2006 06:01 PM

Meneltarmacil?

(But I thought Menel was a he?)

The only other one I can think of is Lalaith, though I have no trouble pronouncing her name....

Glirdan 06-07-2006 06:07 PM

Well, the only other ones I can think of would be Lalwendė or Esty, yet I don't find either of them overly difficult to pronounce.

mormegil 06-07-2006 06:34 PM

Menel is male so no and Glidan even though you guessed twice neither is correct.

Come on, it's really not that difficult.

mormegil 06-07-2006 06:39 PM

Found the thread and it wasn't the Fordim thread, sorry.

Diamond18 06-07-2006 06:42 PM

Surely it's not Farael because he's a guy.

symestreem 06-07-2006 06:50 PM

There is one on the Fordim thread as well, Orominuialwen, but Glirdan already guessed her.

Is it Anguirel?

mormegil 06-07-2006 06:52 PM

No.

Ang is a male but this female shares something in common with him that very few others, if any, in the top 30 do.

That's the second time I've done that tonight. Sorry, Anguirel. :(

Mithalwen?

Glirdan 06-07-2006 07:12 PM

Mithalwen?
When you think about this one, it really does fit because there are many ways you could pronounce her name. As well, a thing they have in common is their none Avvatar's. So morm, what is your judgement before I give up entirely? :rolleyes:

JennyHallu 06-07-2006 07:45 PM

I'm going to guess Celuien.

mormegil 06-07-2006 08:04 PM

Mithalwen is correct!

Thank you.

I've never seen so many double guesses :p.

Are my clues too difficult or to vague?

symestreem 06-07-2006 08:13 PM

Too difficult to follow up, for me. I couldn't find the thread where she was unsure about the pronounciation of her name, even when I thought it was her. It was the avatar clue that gave it away.

He haunts Marx.

I'll take a stab at this, symestreem...Thenamir?

symestreem 06-07-2006 09:03 PM

Yep! :)
