P.S. Looking at the list this far, don't you think the people of Gondor have pretty unimaginative names? Or, actually what I mean is: when it comes to the first letters of their names. (And I think we could keep this for a while still anyway...)

Now I am curious if we keep this trend up still

EDIT: Wow! 6000th post!!! I haven't been paying attention to that. That is... rather scary, anyway...

This was not easy to find. Most of the wo/men of Gondor that popped into my head when I posted don't start with I's or B's, but I want to see the trend go.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Your posts are now as numerous as the Rohirrim that set out to rescue Minas Tirith, and each of them just as valuable!

Now now now, you are making me blush Thank you anyway. I think the greatest strength of this forum in general lies in the fact that people succeed to make valuable posts here.

But the letter trend goes indeed well! And now in order to maintain the letter-balance, let us not forget... the person is neither a King nor a Steward, yet still a person from Gondor... and rather obvious one, in fact...
