Silmarien.

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-06-2004, 04:47 PM

Oops. Silmarien was already used, so last name so far is

Lady of the Stars

The Perky Ent · 08-06-2004, 04:50 PM

Um...I've already said Varda (Lady of the stars) You'll have to try again!

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-06-2004, 04:52 PM

I think the last correct response was
Lady of the Stars ?

Firefoot · 08-06-2004, 06:20 PM

I'm the one who screwed all this up... oops.

How about Salvia?

wilwarin538 · 08-07-2004, 07:19 AM

I believe there is a hobbit named Prisca

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-07-2004, 08:17 AM

Amarie

(left behind in Valinor by Finrod Felagund)

Sleepy Ranger · 08-07-2004, 08:58 AM

Elanor

NightKnight · 08-09-2004, 08:20 AM

Both Amarie and Elanor have been used already.

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-09-2004, 09:50 AM

In that case the last one is
Prisca
posted by Wilwarin 538
(Prisca Bolger)

so an "A" is needed within one day or it's Wilwarin 538's turn?

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-09-2004, 10:02 AM

Amaranth
(Had to do a search to make sure it's a female name.

Amaranth Brandybuck
Aunt of Frodo Baggins. Amaranth Brandybuck was born in 2904. She was the daughter of Gorbadoc Brandybuck and Mirabella Took Brandybuck. Amaranth had an older brother Rory who was the grandfather of Merry Brandybuck. She also had five younger siblings: Saradas, Dodinas, Asphodel, Dinodas, and Primula, mother of Frodo. Amaranth Brandybuck died in 2998.
Etymology:
An amaranth is an annual plant with showy purple or crimson flowers. It is also a poetic term for a flower that never fades.

Source:
Appendix C: Brandybuck genealogy, p. 382

(There is at least one unnamed "h", a hobbit.

Well Tuor, you are the winner! Please continue!

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-15-2004, 07:37 AM

All right. How about olvar only? I imagine it's debatable whether ents should be included???

To start:

Telperion

Firefoot · 08-15-2004, 07:41 AM

Niphredil.

I don't think Ents should be included. Part of the definition of Olvar is that they have roots in the earth, and being that Ents can move they don't really have roots in the earth.

The Perky Ent · 08-15-2004, 07:56 AM

Laurelin

NightKnight · 08-15-2004, 09:40 AM

Nimloth.

Would it be allowed to pick forests?

Firefoot · 08-15-2004, 11:19 AM

Hirilorn.

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-15-2004, 01:08 PM

While it's a grey area, I like the idea of putting names of forests in, unless there are objections.

NightKnight · 08-15-2004, 03:41 PM

Halfling's Leaf, another name for pipe-weed.
