Nominations for Best Nicks! - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I secretly envy Mister Underhill his moniker and his erudition.

I find myself wondering where Heren Istarion came from (the name, not the man.)

Child of the Seventh Age strikes me as the most canonically clever of all nicks. Ever.

And for sheer mystery, Mithadan, whoever he really is. (Drat him.)

Others I wonder about often:

Orual
Sharku (that took guts, or a sense of irony, or both)
the various manifestations of Sauron (why?)
ditto the various Nazguls
