Renaming some guy Gothmog doesn't actually mean a lack of respect.

Check out Grond - it's named in honour of the mighty Hammer of the Underworld of old (so Tuor, I think they DO care about the First Age, especially considering Sauron was around then! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ) and at the least that gives a sense of pwoer.
So here you have Gothmog, named in honour of the Lord of the Balrogs of old. Gothmog crawled on. Great beats drew it, orks surrounded it, and behind walked mountain-trolls to wield it. Dart and bolt hurt it not. No fire would catch on its roofing. Gothmog crawled on.
