I agree, there are some great names.

I know what you mean about Gildor Inglorion. The Gildor part makes me think of gold (gilded, + doré) and the Inglorion has the connotation of glory. I have no idea what the name really means, but that's what it conjures up for me.

I also like Imladris, Ithilien, Rauros, Lossarnach, Pelargir and Taniquetil. I just noticed they're all place names, that wasn't intentional, but they are names that appeal to me.
