The only *named* title characters (of the Middle-earth books, at any rate) are Turin, Beren and Luthien, I think.
I can't remember any of their discarded names, except Melilot for Luthien ... and the answer is male.
Turin seems the most likely ... wonder if he has a discarded name on top of all his others.
