Who does Galadriel resemble? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Slightly more feminine indeed.

I'm crippled by having none of my books with me--they're all at home, and I'm at college--and by the fact that I've never read HoME, but isn't there somewhere a story/chapter/something that mentions that Galadriel was, at one point, nicknamed Nerwen (Man-maiden, or something like that) because she went to battle with the lords of the Noldor?

Or is my mind playing tricks on me, and I'm just making up very strange things.
