Re: Who has the best name?
I like my moniker. If I'd gone with my porn star name, it would have been 'Spats Carnie', which, whilst it isn't entirely shit, is a bit too 'Public Enemy'.

The film, not the band.

Just a note, love, you probably know this already, but I gotta point it out: Galadriel's name is translated as "maiden crowned with a raidiant garland" - i.e.: her hair. I think that the fact that she still bore the light of the Two Trees (the sun and moon originated from one flower and one fruit from the trees) on her face, unlike Celeborn, who was Sindarin, I think, never saw the Trees, is also a factor here. My Middle-Earth history is a bit rusty, though, so feel free, everyone, to correct me if I'm wrong.


Luthien dear,
I only actualy knew a part of that story, so thank you for expanding on it. My Middle Earth history is very rusty, am yet to acquire copies of the entire Middle Earth History (12 volumes I belive) so the only knowldege that I have is the stuff i could gather from the first two books (without getting utterly confused) and from the films and of course the occasional website.
I did know what the complete translation was but do remeber that in the common tongue she is reffered to as the lady of light. It was while watching the film the other day that I discovered that galad means light (though in which of the Elvish languages I am not sure) it was in the scene when we first see Arwen just after she finds Aragorn and she comes to help Frodo, she says:

Arwen: Frodo.... Im Arwen. Telin le thaed (I am Arwen. I have come to help you.)

Arwen: Lasto beth nin. Tolo dan na galad (Hear my voice. Come back to the light)

When they arrive at Rivendell Elrond also says
"Lasto beth nin. Tolo dan na galad"

see galad = light. I checked this on a site and surely enough it stated that the Galad in Galadriel is why she is refferd to as the lady of light in the common tongue

cheers

Re: Who has the best name?
Its good to see that nothing changes here - same old wierdness. Although this one is extra wierd - even for this place.

Well I could, but I don't particularly feel like it.

By the way, you're welcome, Sydney. I have lots of useless information that I can pass on.
