First of all it is pretty clear that any thing that has been famous for only one age is prone to be a lot less famous than one that has inspired two or three ages of living beings with their fame.
Secondly, being known or "famous" in the Middle Earth ("The Outer Lands" as they are properly called) is peanuts when comparing to being famous and renowned not only in the ME but also in Valinor.
Combining the two points basically means Fëanor and The Two Trees of Valinor are the only decent contenders...
