Do you know what your christian name translates to in Sindarin?

Mine translates as Neurion, but some of probably know that already.

I got a little book at last Oxonmoot which translates a couple of hundred English names into Sindarin. Apparently its not a precise science, & as the author says: 'Say the name aloud: it should sound pleasant to the ear: Tolkien intended Sindarin to sound beautiful when heard'.

Can't find 'Neurion' in it....
