I actually came to see this site, because my daughter pressed me to take a look at this. The system wanted a username to log into. So I took my copy of Silmarillion and searched the index (as all the people I saw that time were having Tolkienish names - and I thought that would be a norm).

The dwarf-city of Nogrod sounded nice - there is an old town of Novgorod (meaning "new- city", in Russian) just quite near where I live, and it reminds me of our close relationship with the Russians: as we Finns were among the people to bring out that town to begin with. And there is something about the dwarves that I kind of like (being the too early created masters of their trade)

So just sounded nice and fitted with the world enough...
