name generators... - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Ah! But I found a different name generator and all of the names(common ones) and the elvish names(or hobbit names) were all written out next to them so... This name generator not very exact, if they're all at random!!

But it's funny how it's at ramdom and when people come out with good ones, you ask thm to show you and it comes out like poo the meesly orc in stead of Zeus the valar! LOL!

funny!

Name generators are interesting and good to play with but theres really no possible way to know if they are accurate. I know a few names in elvish, such as my own- Isowen! But i'm not so good with other things.

Well, then, Mr. Underhill, how do you explain the sudden change in my Elvish name? For the longest time, when I put my name in the name generator, it gave me Esgalost, but suddenly I'm getting Hallasew.

I still am amused by the fact that, according to your name generators, in Middle-earth Elijah Wood was a miruvor-drinking Elven maiden.

About this site's name generator:

Anyone knows why it isn't case and character sensitive anymore?

A few of you have said that you know your real elvish names and some other words possibly. I was wondering where/how you found them out.

I think the funniest thing I've gotten from the name generator is for "Frodo Baggins". The Elvish name you get is Pellamel, which according to Noel's Guide to Tolkien's Languages means "beyond the borders of love." Poor guy!

Lolidir, sorry, I know exactly the website you need, but have lost the address. It's probably still around on the forum somewhere. You might find it at the "What does your screen name mean?" thread, maybe...

Lolidir try here(look under Languages). Its where I got mine. But my name is very common so it isnt for sure that they will have whatever your name is.

Sindarin Calad, but that's masculine, so perhaps Caladhien or Caladhwen? Hmm.
Quenya Calmë. Interesting.
