Of Galadriel it is said in the Sil (Of the Rings of Power...) "yet she herself was of the Noldor and remembered the Day before days in VAlinor, and she was the mightiest and fairest of all the Elves that remained in Middle-earth."
Unless there is another reference that I'm missing, I don't think Galadriel is ever named above any of the males of the house of Finwe...

What's with the "Gothmog 2nd Nazgul, Khamul, 3rd Nazgul" stuff...
Khamul is named 2rd of the Nazgul behind the Witch King, and no other Nazgul are named... Gothmog refers to two entities in the legendarium... 1) The Lord of the Balrogs killed by Ecthelion of the Fountain 2) The Leutenient of Morgal who commanded the troops of Sauron after the Witch King is defeated by Eowyn and Merry ...of the second, which I believe is where you are getting the reference to him being a Nazgul it is never stated that he is one...and Since Khamul is specifically named 2nd in command (albeit only in Unfinished Tales)...Gothmog couldn't have been 2nd...PJ represented Gothmog as an half orc creature thing in RotK if you remember the movie, but other than that, we are given no reference to him...he could have been Nazgul, Orc, Man or other, but he is never described beyond this that I am aware of and therefore I don't believe he can be properly placed as a Nazgul...
