Heheh; I guess for some this name simply will not prove good enough
In any case, I note
Lúthien 'flower-daughter' according to Tolkien after
The Lord of the Rings was published (before
The Lord of the Rings was in print Tolkien imagined it meant 'enchantress' rather). Here
-ien 'daughter' rather than
-iel in
Tinúviel 'twilight-daughter, nightingale'
