I've been speculating about what language the Dwarves of the Ered Luin used for there names.

Was it Khuzdul? Since they could use a name from their language that wasn't necessarily their true name, like Azaghal. Elvish? Since they used it . Lastly Adunaic? Since they did have some trade with Men, or was it a mix of all of them?

Your thoughts?
