D'aww. Sadly my home forum has long since lost all its troll/spammer threads, but this nicely scratches the nostalgia itch. ^_^

Out of curiousity, I went through and picked out the first valid answer given for each letter of the alphabet so far:

ArdA
Bob
[c]
DamroD
EönwË
FelaróF
GlamdrinG
HaletH
IstarI
[j]
[k]
LabadaL
MîM
NáiN
OdO
[p]
[q]
RodnoR
SaeroS
Tinwelint
[u]
[v]
[w]
[x]
[y]
[z]

I don't think we're going to get much for most of them, but I can offer:

KuduK
Pip ("I'm generally called Pippin, or even Pip.")

I'm not sure I can get away with crunc, the very early Gnomish (=Noldorin =Sindarin) word for 'crow' (and so essentially = 'crebain'), but I feel like a C entry is possible.

(There's also a Noldorin name 'Ulu' for Ulmo, but I don't even know where it's from...)
