The River Greyflood?

Ultimatejoe · 01-22-2003, 06:23 AM

The Great River was always Anduin. When the elves first crossed it they dwelled in the lands below the Misty Mountains and were slow to pass them.

Russandol · 01-22-2003, 10:49 AM

umm, i would say great with a small and large 'g' for it was long in its course and its end was never seen.

Pallando B.C · 01-26-2003, 05:53 AM

Umm....The River Running?

Russandol · 01-26-2003, 01:27 PM

No..... I'd head further west and back in time if I were you.

Ultimatejoe · 01-26-2003, 02:06 PM

Gelion?

Russandol · 01-26-2003, 02:56 PM

Utuvienyes! UltimateJoe has it!

Gil-Galad · 02-20-2003, 10:05 PM

umm is this one still running or shall i start another one?

Elendil

Pallando B.C · 02-22-2003, 04:52 AM

Rather than giving us the most common name he has, give us a less-common one and we will try and guess his common name, (if you follow). It makes it more enjoyable!

...the Tall or Elendili or Star Lover.

Gil-Galad · 02-23-2003, 09:59 AM

nope neither and sorry about that but just a note wasn't Elendili also considered Anarion and Isildur and Elendil?

Gil-Galad · 02-23-2003, 10:00 AM

also shall i restart it? if so here it is

Eorlings

Eorlingas is what I assume you mean [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img], which is another name for the Rohirrim.

Gil-Galad · 03-15-2003, 06:47 PM

Beren87 · 03-23-2003, 12:12 PM

Technically Druadan is for Wild Man, (singular) or Woses.

Gil-Galad · 03-26-2003, 06:11 PM

i was thinking Woses so Beren has it i think? or does Earwen? you decide

Beren87 · 03-26-2003, 06:16 PM

Earwen can have it, I was just puttin in my two cents. She pretty much had it right.

elven maiden Earwen · 03-26-2003, 07:26 PM

ok thanks Beren87

Thorongil

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 03-27-2003, 02:34 AM

Wasn't that a name Aragorn used when he travelled in Gondor?

elven maiden Earwen · 03-27-2003, 09:33 AM

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-06-2003, 02:47 PM

Sorry about the wait, thanks for the reminder Elven Maiden, I'd completely forgotten I'd posted here.

What language is the name Radagast, and what does it mean?

Sophia

Pallando B.C · 04-06-2003, 05:24 PM

In the tongue of Númenore it means ' tender of beasts '

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-06-2003, 05:35 PM

Perfect! Your turn...

Beren87 · 04-13-2003, 07:02 PM

Bringing this to the top to say, your turn Pallando.

elven maiden Earwen · 04-18-2003, 08:19 AM

anyone want to go?

Lyra Greenleaf · 04-20-2003, 02:56 PM

I hope no-one minds me going

Whose name means "Lord of the West" and who did he steal the title from?

elven maiden Earwen · 04-20-2003, 07:48 PM

The Valar were called Lord of the West, but mostly Manwe. Ar-Adunakhor also used this meaning for his name.

Lyra Greenleaf · 04-23-2003, 11:40 AM

Yes that answers the two parts of the question in reverse order!

elven maiden Earwen · 04-25-2003, 10:52 PM

What was the name of the place where Elwë and Melian met?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-26-2003, 01:47 AM

Nan Emloth

elven maiden Earwen · 04-27-2003, 08:49 AM

correct

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-27-2003, 07:56 PM

Which of Feanor's sons was indirectly named after him?

Beren87 · 04-27-2003, 08:34 PM

Well, I guess you could say Curufin [fifth son of Fëanor] which has the birthname [more or less, same meaning] of Fëanor.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 04-27-2003, 08:40 PM

Hence indirectly. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Your go Beren.

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 05-05-2003, 11:49 PM

yet again... Beren?
