Sorry, but it's been three days! Good job though! That's one of my favorite parts in the book

Anyways, the next category is... Months!

Let's start with a good one!

Afterlithe

My birth month

I don't think this topic will get very far; there just aren't enough months, and I can't find any that start with E.

Yeah, that's true. There are lots of months, but unfortunatly, they all end in E, which doesn't help. So, I think I need to extend the criteria. This will extend it slightly, but not a lot. Now, It's time and calanders, so ages, months, seasons, and special calender dates are now acceptable!

Elessar, the name Aragorn assumed as king.

By the way, as the topic is nicknames, I think that we should avoid names by which characters and things are most commonly referred (ie Gandalf, naming no names ).
