Mine is quenya for 'warrior'
All of you should know my name anyway,
Elentari = Elbereth's Quenya name (Star Queen)
And I've always loved Elbereth/Varda/Elentari. When I first read LotR I was intrigued and wanted to know who she was, and after the Silmarillion she became a favorite (one of many)

Ohtatyaro- I though the Quenya word "Ohtar" meant "Warrior" (like the mention of Ohtar in LotR) Correct me if I'm wrong Unless your name was a variation i don't know (I haven't studied too far in Quenya yet )
