It's not Fladrif?

No.

How about Fangorn? Wokia says he might have been named after Fangorn Forest.

I can't find anyone else named after a tree

I thought it was named after him... but then his name contains "tree" anyway. Not him though.

"Orn", as in "Fangorn", is the Sindarin for "tree". You need the Quenya word.

Time to consult my good friend, Parf Edhellen, then.

Urwen · 06-08-2019, 10:45 AM

I see. I thought so but wasn't sure. The other is Tar-Aldarion.

That's it! Well done.
