Sorry, that doesn't hold up. The ending is not "-ir" in any of those cases. In Gwaihir, the ending is -hir, meaning "lord," thus "Wind-lord." In Amdir, the ending is -dir. This is, by context, a... |

I'm not so sure. I think this alteration is not a "change," per se, but rather an update. "Bauglir" is a Gnomish name; there is no Sindarin ending "-lir." "Baugron," however, matches then Sindarin... |

I realized there's another change we didn't note: Bauglir < Baugron as per a note to the later versions of the Valaquenta. |

That is correct. The only other possibility is that his name was "Artanaro [translated Rodnor] (his father-name) Ereinion (his mother name) Gil-galad (an epesse)." Araniondo (or something to that... |

Well, adjectives in Sindarin (outside of compounds) are also typically after their noun, so the construction should still change. |

Well, the ai<ae shift is pretty common in Sindarin. I'd say that change is likely. Oh, and thank you, Aiwendil! EDIT: "Thoron Sīr" should probably be altered to "Sīr Thoron" (as in "Aran... |

I believe LotR does name Elendil as the author of the Akallabeth; I'll check. I personally believe that Tolkion envisioned many different versions of the Great Tales, all coming down different... |

I believe all the "Thargelion" forms were replaced by either "Dor-Caranthir" (so called by the Noldor) and "Radhrost." (the name in Doriathrin) Or was "Radhrost" replaced by "Talath Rhśnen?" I... |

Well, that's not exactly true; we do see the form "Žindikollo" in "The Shibboleth of Fėanor." But you're right, he didn't usually use that form. |
