N - NIENOR (NINE in disarray, plus OR).
Well, it looks like mothers and daughters, but there are nine names. Maybe one is a trio and includes Grandma. Whoops! Crossed with G55.

I get LAL for ALL (every).
But AITH for language? There's no U, so the other daughter can't use her birth name.

C has to be CELEBRIAN, because we don't know the names of Arwen's daughters. But I wanted the goose to be EIDER.
Hang on ... is an eider a duck?

There's brain in Celebrian ...but cele can't really sound like silly.

I think the final pair is ANAIRE (A + Na + IRE) and INDIS. But I don't know of a flower called an indi or a dini or a nidi!
(REALLY kicking myself over THAI!)

Anaire is correct, but Indis is not. Take another look at that family tree.
ARWEN: Diminish, with direction, for a noble maiden. NIENOR: The Nazgul are in disarray, alternatively, for her. CELEBRIAN: Note a wild goose for her. ANAIRE: Combine a note and an element with wrath for her. LALAITH: Every language in turmoil for her. I: Bloomers are in turmoil for her. MORWEN: Initially, ride or move. Not old? Reverse and see her. ERENDIS: Before direction and a dwarf woman, she appears. Hint: Two of my favorite characters are Anaire's grandkids, and another of my favorite characters is her daughter.

IRISSE.
Another name for Aredhel. I figured it could only be Aredhel and she must have another name. Wondered if it was Ar-Feiniel and not a first letter answer. Then looked a bit further. Iris ... oh - irisES! Clever. I THOUGHT Anaire as another sister to Findis and Irime wasn't right! Must have missed the =. Eyesight .... Another excellent password, Urwen!

For now, I just have this one. As it's only 3 clues, I'll just copy it out on my phone. I do have one other all planned, but I haven't written the clues yet. So: 1. Naught splendid about him. 2. More exquisite direction is what he's all about. 3. It's a strain and a muddle to find her.

I am curious to see what this is. Based on number of letters, I thought the password to be EOL or DIS, the only three-letter names I know of.

You quoted a third only today: OIN!
Then there's ORI and NAR. SAM, BAN, RAN ... even PIP, stretching it a bit. And ERU. And MAY.

I assume muddle is an anagram indicator?

Yes regarding muddle.
Fine is right ... but if you read the clue carefully, it's asking for the comparative adjective.

Maybe GLORFINDEL (He contains FINER, and also three directions: L, N and D)

2. FRIEND, from finer? Maybe that can stretch into Elf-friend somehow?
Edit: xed with the last couple guesses.

One of the above combinations is right.
Not Glorfindel, and no extra letters. And not Friend.

1. ANGROD is almost no grand. But there's a letter gone missing, and that's not indicated by the clue.

ANGROD: Naught splendid about him.
2. More exquisite direction is what he's all about. 3. It's a strain and a muddle to find her. It absolutely makes Angrod. It's 0 + GRAND.

I: More exquisite direction is what he's all about. SIt's a strain and a muddle to find her. To be fair, Urwen did guess DIS or EOL.
