That's quite a large answer you want, but here goes.
Thorongil, "eagle of the star", was the name used by Aragorn in the service of Ecthelion, Steward of Gondor. He was also called Estel, "hope", while living in Rivendell; Aragorn; Strider; Longshanks, by Bill Ferny; Dunedan, "man of the West", by Bilbo; Elessar, "elf stone", as king; and Telcontar, a translation of "Strider", the name he took as the name of his house. I'm sure that there is one or two that I forgot, but for the most part, that should be a good answer. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
