*Sophia howls with laughter*

And as for my name... Sophia the Thunder Mistress was a nickname *cringes* given to me by a guy. I was looking for a name for Messenger, and he thought it up out of the blue. I find it apt, because I'm a philosophy major at school, and Sophia is rooted in the same word as philosophy (My greek is terrible, so I'm not going any farther into it than that). And the Thunder Mistress bit? Who doesn't want to chuck around lightning bolts at random [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]. I sure wouldn't mind.

My nick origianlly came from aragorn's name when he was in Rivendell ( Estel ). Imagine my suprise when I found out some one else was useing my name in the chat rooms ( yes, I was useing it first )! So I had my name be The Only Real Estel ( you can probably figure out why... ) [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

I got Helkahothion from the name generator. I later asked Maikadilwen if it really ment André(my real name) but it didn't. SO she directed me to Vanimaedhel and she gave me the real elvish name: Anuion. I still am floating on the clouds with that name [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I can't remember the elven name I got on the Downs name generator, but the translation of my real name, Sarah, is Berethiel. And this isn't exactly off-topic, GOTO. Don't worry. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Back when I was known as Athril on the chat! It feels like forever, I was such a teeny-bopper! Anyways, I was chatting with a bunch of people (I think Legolas was one of them) and we were talking about that name, Legolas, and how it ment Greenleaf. They said that Car was red, though I don't think that is accurate, but I changed it to Carlas, and have forever loved it!

According to the bible, André is short for Andreas, and that means: The male, the strong. Vanimaedhel translated the biblic translation to elfish, (Queneyan I believe) and out came the word Anui- the ON is just a male ending to make it more name-like if you know what I mean. (they have a word for that, but I can't quite remember it.)

It's funny since André, and Anuion kinda resemble each other.

"Thenamir" was originally made up right out of the blue, off the top of my head. It was before I had discovered chat, or RP (at the ancient age of 36...I led a deprived childhood). My daughter was doing a little real-time freeform RP with some friends, and I found it interesting enough to want to join in. But I had to have a nick in a hurry. I wanted something that sounded Gondorian in origin, and so applied a mixture of letters from my real first name (known only to a select few) with the suffix "-mir" as in Faramir and Boromir -- hence "Thenamir"

It was not until many months afterwards that I asked an elvish expert (Sharku) whether there might be an actual meaning to the name. The "mir" suffix, of course, means "jewel", but "Thena" was tougher to parse. Sharku however came up with a couple of near-hits: "thina" (meaning "grey", hence, "thinamir", "grey-jewel") or possibly a corrupted pronunciation of "tinta" (meaning "sparkling", hence "tintamir", "sparkling-jewel"). Of course, any meaning assigned to the made-up name is purely coincidental, but it's nice to know I wasn't completely off-base in my chosen nick.

I got my nick from the name generator, it wasn't until quite a bit later I figured out what my name really is in Elvish (Hiriel in Sindarin, Heriel in Quenya).

Ah, some of these are very interesting. Good thread. <3.

My nickname is one that I've used many different places. For a while, it was what I registered with everywhere. QuickSlash was two different RP characters for me: one was a wildcat for a few lovely Redwall RPGs, and the other was a cheetah to go with a seperate char for a Ronin Warriors RPG. The Ronin Warriors one is still going, and I just posted there today. <3.

Well, it would have been nice to have had an elvish translation for my name that I really, really liked. Still searching...

Anyway, well, when I saw the movies and read the books, Aragorn stuck out as a really great character and one that I could identify with - or at least strive to be like. (So did Faramir, but by the time I got to that part in the books, Aragorn had become ingrained as my favorite [and FaramirIsHere just didn't have the same ring to it :P ]. Although, Faramir is probably a closer representation of me. He seems more human and lighter than noble Aragorn).

Anywaaaay, to actually get to the point, aragornreborn just sort of popped into my head. So here I am!

On other message boards before this, I was known as "Aredhel" since my personality is remarkably like hers, but I decided to change it to Finwë since he was the one who had "started it all." Come on, how many chances do you get to marry two people, one of which is a Vanyarin bimbo???? (Even though I'm a girl; the term "bimbo" could apply to guys.)

As to my name, is it really that hard? [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] I constantly regret the fact that I tried to divide the words with an underscore, not knowing that for once in a lifetime this wonderful forum would actually allow me to have spaces in my name. But I guess the underscore serves to divide me from the scores of other Luthiens and Tinuviels haunting this ghostly barrow.

LePetitChoux, I've always loved your nick. I like cabbage, too. Are you French, by any chance? You look rather European.

Orual, your name has always intrugued me as well. I saw your name on a thread for the first time right after I had read Til We Have Faces, so I recognized it. Very cool.

I feel so unoriginal......

Well, my name was just cos I like Tom Bombadil. But I couldn't actually put Tom Bombadil because, lamentably, I'm not him. And because he's so splendidly bombatastic I decided to call myself that. But it looked too much like bombastic for my liking so I settled for this. hoom hom.

Naurwen=Fire Maiden.

I'm a maiden and I love fire, so I found it quite fitting. I did a lot (read 'a bit') of work to get that!

And at the time of making the nick I was going through an "Wow, Elves and Lothlorien are great!" phase. So Naurwen of Lothlorien.

Plus I think it's fun to say outloud. Go on, say it. You know you want to. See, didn't that feel nice?

It's quite funny actually, because I'm a hobbit with an elf name. How pretty. And I'm actually of Hobbiton, not Lothlorien.

Hmmm...

Yours identity-crisesedly,

Elfwine, son of Eomer, prince of the Golden Hall. Real original, I know. What can I say? My muse was on a coffee break.

I perhaps would have chosen Mordolien, the name I got from the generator here at the Barrow-Downs, but I didn't feel too Elvish at the time.

Yours is more original than mine, Elfwine. I'm just one of the many, many Tinuviels...I should have gone with Akedhi, but I hadn't made her up yet. (At least Akedhi doesn't lend itself to such awful nicknames. Like 'Tinny.' [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] )

Gah, I'm so rubbish at accents...

Another name thrown out from the BDs name generator. However, if you actually looked up my full name now in the name generator, it would give you a different name - Ascahyandel. It changes ever so often. Pity - I really like that name. Still, Blessed Night works fine for me...

Another name generator person... From the *Hobbit* name generator, mind you. No elves for me [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

Actually, Amarantha is my friend's hobbit name, not mine...But I liked hers better, so I stole it [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] Daisy is mine, so I figured I'd use them both, to make it fair...

A film
That film wouldn't by any chance be "Cave Dwellers" would it?

My nick is my first and middle name squished together (how creative!) but it works for me. It sounds like something you might encounter in Tolkien's worlds.
