2. R Will the artist have his day? Sounds like it.

Well, having decided that the answer is more likely to be a day than a person, I went looking for elvish words for days instead:

"Friday : Orbelain (Rodyn)"

This is quoted from a Barrow-Downs thread started in 2003.

As "Rodyn" is in brackets, I guess it's obscure, more obscure than Orbelain, (only one other day had an alternative in brackets, I think), and as it maybe sounds like Rodin, the sculptor of "The Kiss," I guess it would work for "the artist," as if Rodyn could sound like it was his day.

Rodin sounds like "Rodan," I think. I'd pronounce Rodyn "Rodinn," not knowing otherwise, but I'm not 100% confident with my elvish pronunciation.
