They were: Manwë, Varda, Ulmo, Yavanna, Aulë, Mandos, Nienna and Oromë. Melkor was also an Aratar, but he isn't counted since he rebelled against the Valar.

I'm really trying not to make a habit of this, but:
Bump-erty-bump! Fingolfin II, where are thou?! Have a nice eavesdrop, Aethelwine.

Wow, sorry, totally forgot about this thread.
Anyway, what were the names of Nienna's two brothers?

Well, that would be the Fëanturi, Námo ( or Mandos ) and Irmo ( or Lorien ).
Have a nice day! Aethelwine.

I got it right!
Here we go: Who took care of Míriel, after she had grown weary of living in Arda? Two names please. Love, Aethelwine.

Arg. Sorry guys. The whole Barrow-Downs birthday party screwed me up.
Anyway: What was Manwe's surname and what did it mean?

Wasn't it Sulimo meaning High King of Arda or something like that?

Doesn't it mean lord of the airs? 'Sul' means breath, so therefore would it be Lord of the Breath of Arda?

Seeing as ten days have already past, and I would love to see this topic active again, I'll ask a new question:
What is special about the term 'Valier'? And I don't mean the fact that it's used to describe the Valar that took on a female form. Have fun! Aethelwine.

It was only ever used by Tolkien in the Valaquenta?

Well done, Son of Númenor!
