I feel really stupid asking this, but does anyone know the names of the great kings of men that turned into the Nazgul? I need some names... Thanks a bunch!

This has been discussed before...but to save you time, Tolkien only mentioned 3 names of the 9 Nazgul throughout his writings.
1.Khamul- An Easterling.
2.Gothmog- Said to be the Luitenant of Morgul, making him second in charge.
3.Witch-King of Angmar- Self explanitory (highest Nazgul)
Next time try the search function for better results and to avoid your topics being closed...It really is a very effective search engine for this forum.

Corrections:

Gothmog is never said to be a Nazgûl; some people (like me) just think that.

The Witch-king of Angmar was just a title; the name of the Lord of the Nazgûl is unknown.

And "Khamul" is actually Khamûl (yes, special characters matter, dammit!) He was the Witch-king's lieutenant in Dol Guldur.
