I was just trying to make Felagund work, because that's definitely an epesse!
If Anduril is right, Galadriel got it really, not me.  RE: Are there any Tolkien palindromes beside Mim? Quote: Originally Posted by Galadriel55 Bob. But I think that's it. We forgot ODO!

Neither of you have it. I thought I indicated than thank you was not ta or tar. The clue is not that tricksy and I feel it follows the conventions. I understand epesse to be a secondary name of a personand that is what you are looking for. Further more it is known as a secondary name. It isnt Felagund but it is on a par. I havent been mean and used someone like Gilgalad or Galadriel who are best known by the epesse to the extent that the original name is forgotten.
The cryptic clue is in two distinct parts which simply have to be added together.

Celebrindal?
Contains "land" and "ele" (star). Not sure about "thank you," unless it is celebrate minus rate - if you rate someone you appreciate them (as you do if you celebrate them).

Hurray. It is Celebrindal but you aren' t right on the reasoning quite.
Star was celebrity which lost the initial letters of thank you, t and y to leave celebri. Land of course turns into ndal.

Very clever. I suppose the brilliance of Tolkien's starry universe can blind one to more tawdry things like celebrity.
 Here we go, then: Red hip mutates in the woods, although surrounded by nothing.
