Father-names among the Noldor - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Just to really drive this one home, NoME gives two possible birth-names for Gil-Galad: "Finellach" and "Finwain". And did I mention Finduilas, daughter of Champ, son of Champ, son of Finwe, son of Finwe? I don't think I did.

In fairness to House Finwe, I should note that NoME also gives Ingwe's father as Ilion, his wife as Ilwen, and his children as Indis and Ingwil. So it's not just the Noldor at fault.
