I don't think Aragorn liked his Ranger names though, remember what he said at the Council of Elrond about Butterbur? And I'm always annoyed at Éomer for giving him yet another name. Like he really needed another one!

All his names are different sides of his personality, different aspects of who is.

With all his names, he has ties with the Elves (Ellesar and Estel), ties with Arnor (Aragorn), ties with Bree (Strider), ties with Gondor (Thorongil), and ties with Rohan (Wingfoot). He's got connections like a good king should.

*gasp* We've all forgotten one: The Dunedan! (Note the capital "T") Add that to the list and he's beating Túrin for sure.
