If it was a Nazgul, surely you wouldn't have to make yourself sound more powerful by taking a name like that?

But, if he was a Nazgul, then he was originally a Man. And I can imagine a Black Numenorean or an Easterling taking a name like that in reverence to one of the primary dark "heroes" of old.

It is clearly a possibility to interpret Gothmog as a Nazgūl. But he was not intended to be one ...

Fair point, Findegil. But I see him as a Nazgul. And since there is (as far as I am aware) no definitive proof one way or another, I am happy to continue doing so. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
