Ditch that last "i" and you've got it.
Or... well, I suppose you can have it anyway.

An extra "i"?
Ai, Eru nîn! A misspelling I have made!
Well, thanks, Herr phantom, for overlooking my mistake.  Who brought up the father of the king of the Kings of Men?

I'm sorry.
Elros is not the father of that line, he was the first.

Then I suppose you are calling Earendil the father of the line?
Earendil was brought up by his mommy and daddy, Tuor and Idril.

Still not him, I'm afraid.
"[F]ather of the king of the Kings of Men" is a phrase in UT. It doesn't refer to Eärendil.

Looking for a phrase, eh? Bleh, I don't have my books.
But seeing as there is (or would appear to be) a limited number of candidates, I will venture one further guess... Annael of the Grey-Elves (not a complete guess though, for now that you mention UT I seem to remember a description of Tuor when in Turgon's hall or leaving it stating that he didn't know how great he looked, and it might have said something about looking the part of the father of the kings of men)
