Question What does your screenname mean?

I've made a search, but I haven't found anything to match it exactly. I mean, there were topics like 'where you youget that nick", but this topic is meant to find out what does your nick mean

Mine is quenya for 'warrior'

Hip hip huzzah! I've been waiting for someone to start this thread so I could crow about how smart I was in creating my screen name.

"fordim" is an archaic verb that means to obscure by casting into darkness (one fordims the living room couch by turning off the lamp)

"hedgethistle," well, OK isn't so smart as it's just a compound of (obviously) 'hedge' (in the sense of a bordering hedge meant to mark the boundary of a property for protection: cf the hedge between the Shire and the Old Forest) and 'thistle'.

So now that I look at it, I guess it's not that smart at all. But my SN means "an obscuring protective hedge composed of thistles" -- it seemed appropriate insofar as it's meant to be a mask behind which the 'real' me (whoever that is) can hide.

1420! Exactly what it is.

Boromir is exactly Boromir, lol, in a mixture of quenya/sindarin it means "jeweled hand," and it also means "faithful jewel." The 88, just stand for nothing to deal with LOTR, it's the year when both my grandparents died.

Imlad is the Elvish word for a valley or dell, and ris in this context means 'ravine', though it comes from a root-word meaning 'cut', referring to the deep, narrow nature of the valley. Tolkien uses the more picturesque old word 'riven' in his English translation of the name, 'Rivendell'.

Heh, I didn't even know it meant that...learn something new every day...

If my name were to be actually translated it would have been Lossefalme, but since I found this out today, after the fact that I used the Barrow-Downs name generator and chose the name Esgallhugwen, I have been trying to find what it means.

In the appendix of The Silmarillion it says that esgal means 'screen, hiding' as in Esgalduin the 'hidden river' that ran through Doriath.
wen of course means 'maiden', and I have absolutely no clue as to what hug could mean. Except of course when I joke that it means I am an Elven maiden that hides from hugs.

"Saraphim" is a misspelled form of the archaic word "seraphim" which is the plural form of "seraph" meaning "flaming spirit". The word is used to refer to a group of angels.

I named myself this because I was thinking of Feanor, whose name means "fiery spirit". I don't have a particular liking for Feanor, I just thought that was pretty nifty. So here we are.

I think it was Nilpaurion Felagund who said that the misspelling on my name would make the translation into "flemming spirit". This is marginly less nifty, but there's nothing I can do about it now.

Silmaril Cold Hard B... (if you know the Jet song, you know how it ends)

Diamond, the hardest substance found in nature, was known to the ancient Greeks. They called the gemstone adamas, using the same word they used for any unbreakable or indestructible substance, such as the hardest metal, or for anything unmovable. They spelled the stem of this word adamant-. Later, Latin writers borrowed these Greek words, sometimes spelling them adamant-, adamas and sometimes adimant-, adimas. The spellings adamant-, adamas in time gave us the English noun adamant, meaning "an imaginary stone of great hardness", and the adjective adamant, meaning "firmly fixed or decided". The "i" spellings in Latin were later changed from adimant-, adimas to diamant-, diamas and came to be used only for the gemstone which we now call diamond.

(courtesy of Merriam-Webster)


Though really, it just means that I like Pippin and would marry him if I could.


(and 18 was how old I was when I signed up)

Hope.
You needn't pay attention to 'The Only Real' bit, it's not meant to be translated The Only Real Hope. I only added that bit on because I messed up my e-mail address when I created Estel, so I couldn't get my password . I can't say I chose it for the meaning either (though it worked out well), I chose it because it was a name of Aragorn's that I liked-and I had already been using it for 3 or 4 months in the chat room anyway.

Tolkien

means 'star-gift'. Star part is 'eli', gift part is 'anna'. Guess that makes it Quenya...

I actually got the idea from a Star Trek DS9 episode when they were trying to convince Kira that her name was Iliana and that she was Cardasian. This was the only name I've heard that made me think "That's a really pretty name", and I realized that with only a little tweeking, it would be Elvish.

I also like reading name books, and found out that it's a real name in Hebrew meaning "My Lord has answered me." Cool huh?

I don't know what Nil means. Although I think it came from -(n)dil, lover of, devoted to.

As for Felagund, well, I needed a surname. Finrod is great - no, wait. He's the greatest. And he has no son. So I pop up.

Indeed, Elven Hunter. Although I realized soon after I saw your name that you were an Elf who likes to hunt, I can't force my imagination away from a very well trained human who creeps around Lothlorien killing Elves. Kind of disturbing, I know...

I like reading about other people's names! But mine is nowhere near that interesting. Evisse means ... absolutely nothing. *gasp* It's a completely made up name of a fictional character from a story one of my friends made up a while ago in response to a challenge. I liked the sound of it so I borrowed it. And the Blue part is a tribute to my dog who's called Blue. I decided to add a colour because the original Evisse from the story was a witch.
I've wanted so many times to change my name since then, having found smarter, prettier and more Tolkien - related names, but alas, it is not possible...

Oh, I've got a really thought out explanation for this! The , comes from the english word the, meaning the definite article used before singular or plural nouns and noun phrases that denote particular, specified persons of things. Perky, comes from the adjective meaning Having a buoyant or self-confident air. And finally, Ent, comes from the word Ent, meaning a large, life-like tree. When you connect them all, you get The Perky Ent: A self-confident large, life-like tree that is used before singualr or plural nouns!


************************************************** **************

Ok, seriously now. I chose The Perky Ent, as it is a good name. Not everything in life has meaning. I'm not actually an ent (though I don't admit it often), there is no heroic story of me traveling the seven seas in search of a perfect name. It just happened. Actually, my predicessor was The Hasty Ent, but, when introduced to the magic of sugar, The Perky Ent took over. And I wouldn't have it any other way

Odd= well, odd and
Wen= maiden in Elvish.

Rather simple, but I really like it.
