Well my name is Rutwij - which means Old saint .

Well rutslegolas can mean " Old Legolas". It dose'nt sound too good does it ??

Well, Feanor of the Peredhil means Fiery Spirit of the Half-Elven.

Laura, my name, means laurel leaves, honour, fame, spirit. So I guess I could be the Honoured and Famous Fiery Spirit of the Half-Elven. Or if I go by Fea, as I usually do, I am reduced to... Spirit. Laura is spirit, Fea is spirit. I guess I'm just a spirited person.

Fea

Interesting names, Fea!

Hmm...Lhunardawen means "the maiden of (the region of) Lune", and Abigail means "the father's delight." So I'm the maiden of Lune that delights my father?
Not bad, I guess...my father Beren did delight in me.

Well, also thanks to davem, I have discovered that the meaning of my real name rendered into Elvish is "Adanverieth" - typically it is even longer in Elvish than in the original! And Verieth sounds like Various with a lisp!!!!( must see if my middle and surnames are snappier! ).
