Sting

[img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Finwe,

I just imagined Sting being forged to help elven maidens get spiders out of their bathtubs [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Does anyone know what the elvish for 'Sting' would be? (even though it wouldn't have been inscribed there as Bilbo named it). Alternatively, I wonder if Bilbo might have spent a bit of the 'Smaug vintage' on getting it engraved himself?
