Legate of Amon Lanc 04-25-2012 04:21 AM

I thought the ones who came with Bilbo were supposed to be excluded, but whatever, I think we can allow Thorin in, he was a king, after all.

If we have Mim and Khim, I think it is more than fair to have Ibun with them too. Especially since his name is rather different from the two others.

1. Durin I
2. Khim
3. Dain
4. Telchar
5. Thror
6. Mîm
7. Dis

P.S. This is rather funny game, for some reason, I haven't noticed this before.

1. Ingold
2. Beregond
3. Borondir
4. Iorlas

P.S. Looking at the list this far, don't you think the people of Gondor have pretty unimaginative names? Or, actually what I mean is: when it comes to the first letters of their names. (And I think we could keep this for a while still anyway...)

Pitchwife 04-30-2012 06:17 AM

Indeed.

1. Ingold
2. Beregond
3. Borondir
4. Iorlas
5. Ioreth

Now I am curious if we keep this trend up still :)

EDIT: Wow! 6000th post!!! :eek: I haven't been paying attention to that. That is... rather scary, anyway...

Galadriel55 04-30-2012 02:14 PM

1. Ingold
2. Beregond
3. Borondir
4. Iorlas
5. Ioreth
6. Bergil
7. Baranor

This was not easy to find. Most of the wo/men of Gondor that popped into my head when I posted don't start with I's or B's, but I want to see the trend go.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! :D Your posts are now as numerous as the Rohirrim that set out to rescue Minas Tirith, and each of them just as valuable! :)

Now now now, you are making me blush :) Thank you anyway. I think the greatest strength of this forum in general lies in the fact that people succeed to make valuable posts here.

But the letter trend goes indeed well! And now in order to maintain the letter-balance, let us not forget... the person is neither a King nor a Steward, yet still a person from Gondor... and rather obvious one, in fact...

Galadriel55 04-30-2012 06:25 PM

I also came up with a person so obvious I can't believe no one mentioned him yet, since in reality he never was King or Stewart either...

1. Ingold
2. Beregond
3. Borondir
4. Iorlas
5. Ioreth
6. Bergil
7. Baranor
8. Imrahil
9. Boromir

7. Baranor
8. Imrahil
9. Boromir
10. Borlas

Can we do three more?

Legate of Amon Lanc 05-06-2012 05:34 AM

I'm afraid we might be too demanding. At least I have been really thinking about this and can't think of anyone. Mayhaps we could find somebody in some really obscure HoME stuff. So either that, or we may just finish this with other Gondorian names, not starting with B/I :)
