Elvish Trivia - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

This is an Elvish trivia so the race concerned is Elves.

I did some searching and now I must confess that my question may not be quite accurate: 'Hidden Hero' was given as a meaning (interpretation) for one elvish name in the Encyclopedia of Arda but now it seems that it might be a misinterpretation...

Dig up your Quenya lexicons! The word 'hidden' is a correct translation. The entire name would be perhaps 'Hidden desire'[?] but if you find the first word the name should be easy to guess...and then finding the brothers' names will be no challenge.

So sorry about the mix-up! [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] Can't blame anyone else but myself: tsk tsk for being too lazy to devise a decent question.
