Where'd ya get that nick??

[Gilthalion]

Long, long ago (before the Internet became the World Wide Web, or is that the other way around?) I wanted an Elvish translation of my name "Robert" which means "bright fame."

I didn't find anything that precisely corresponded (perhaps with today's resources it would be an easier task). I settled on Gilthalion: gil-star + thalion-stalwart.

I thought it sounded cool and that I would not find a duplication. +20 years and no dopplegangers, duplicates, clones, secret evil twins, or coincidences yet!
