A few questions about Middle Earth (knights, titles and names) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Thanks again for the feedback, it's great to have such learned men and women offer their expertise.

So they occasionally use two first names like us, but no last names. I have been trying to find a Rohirric name I'm comfortable with for hours now, and finally I have come up with a couple ones I truly like. I've used two first names... it just seems so short with just the one and no surname. I have done something I'm not proud of though... I've used a name from an actual character as the last part of all my names. It just looked so good I couldn't help myself.

I'm hoping it will work since its the last part of the name and not the first, but I'll let you guys be the judge of that.

"Alchred Éothain"

"Aethelric Éothain"

(Éothain being a close friend of Éomer unless I'm mistaken)

What say the jury?
