Is Thranduil actually Daeron? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

If Thranduil isn't Daeron, does anyone think it is Oropher? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sorry, I know the odds against Thranduil actually being Daeron, especially with all the posts to help; but I have always wondered what happened to Daeron. If Daeron isn't Thranduil, who and where is he?

The images of the Elvenking of Greenwood the Great and that of Daeron in the Lay of Leithian is just too similar. What about Oropher being Daeron? [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Name changes shouldn't be a problem, I mean, there is precedent: Fingon to Felagund, Elwe to Thingol, Turin to Mormegil, etc.

Please remember that I know nothing and I am hoping for the some enlightenment from the people of this most excellent Barrow-downs.

Pax.
