Congratulations on the coming daughter!

There is Gilraen (mother of Aragorn), and Fíriel, who married King Arvedui. Personally I like Ríanna. A couple I knew that posted on TORC named their daughter Luthien Tinuviel

Congratulations!!!

What about Nellas? The elf-woman who looked after Túrin in Doriath. I've always liked the name and Nellas doesn't sound/look so stupid with a German last name, I think..

Silmarien is beautiful, but maybe too close to Silmaril.

Nimloth is lovely, though it might seem odd in German, perhaps...

Nenar, one of the stars?

Lindorie, a Numenorean noblewoman?

Ilmare, Varda's handmaid?

Arien, the Maia who drives the sun, of course?

1420!

Congratulations!

I always took pride in my Tolkien like name. Vanessa. two of my most common nicknames are Nessa and Vana, two of the Valier. The meaning of my name is Butterfly, elven word Wilwarin, which is the constelation Casseiopia made by Varda.

Anna is a good idea, it means "gift" in Quenya.

Congrats on the bundel of joy to come!!

How about Leyna it is a feminine name that is derived from Old German and it means Little angel. It will go well with the German last name... As long as its not rumpelstiltskin! (hehehehe) Sorry i cant help it!

Or Liona its an Italian name though and it means Lioness.

how about Mira it is derived from Latin, Spanish; Hebrew and it means Wonder; Aim; Light of God.

My personel favorite: Vida is Latin and it means Life.

maybe you should find out what kind of name your wife would like (along the lines of) and then you can both be happy...

hope your search is fruitful...
what about middle names?

I've always thought that Lorien would make a lovely girls name.
I second that. I plan to name my daughter Lorien, if I have one.

My friend said she wanted to name her daughter Anduin.
