Quote:

I have found it! Lo! here is a scion of the Eldest of Trees!
-- Aragorn in 'The Steward and the King'.

The Perky Ent 08-20-2004 03:28 PM

Sorry, but it's been three days! Good job though! That's one of my favorite parts in the book :D

Anyways, the next category is... Months!

Let's start with a good one!

Afterlithe

My birth month :D

Firefoot 08-20-2004 04:15 PM

Ethuil.

I think that's a month, anyway.

The Perky Ent 08-20-2004 06:12 PM

Actually, that's Sindarin for spring, so it doesn't count!

Firefoot 08-20-2004 06:41 PM

I don't think this topic will get very far; there just aren't enough months, and I can't find any that start with E.

The Perky Ent 08-20-2004 07:47 PM

Yeah, that's true. There are lots of months, but unfortunatly, they all end in E, which doesn't help. So, I think I need to extend the criteria. This will extend it slightly, but not a lot. Now, It's time and calanders, so ages, months, seasons, and special calender dates are now acceptable!

Firefoot 08-20-2004 08:20 PM

In that case I will restate it:

Ethuil.

The Saucepan Man 09-03-2004 11:27 AM

Elessar, the name Aragorn assumed as king.

By the way, as the topic is nicknames, I think that we should avoid names by which characters and things are most commonly referred (ie Gandalf, naming no names :p ).
