How many can you come up with?
You cannot add suffixs i.e. ing, ed, s(for plural), etc.

RaceR

XeroX

AsiA

here are a few to start with.

Mithalwen · 02-01-2010, 12:22 PM

Lucy on the off chance you are not a spam bot, threads here should have at least some connection with Tolkien

We could try:

ArdA
GlamdrinG
GamlinG
FelaróF
DamroD
OdO
OthO
NáiN
EönwË
and of course
NerweN

There.

I think it's going to be a pretty short thread, though.

Inziladun · 02-02-2010, 06:32 AM

Let's not forget:

MîM

and
SaeroS

Nerwen · 02-02-2010, 07:29 AM

*slaps self on head* And there I was trying to think of ones for "M" and "S"!

And since we have MîM and SaeroS, we must also have

GurthanG
and
GlaurunG

Inziladun · 02-02-2010, 08:06 AM

And LabadaL!

Mithalwen · 02-02-2010, 11:55 AM

Elwe...

Legate of Amon Lanc · 02-02-2010, 12:04 PM

FréalaF, for that matter.

And from among my favourite guys:

GorbaG

Pitchwife · 02-02-2010, 02:38 PM

MithriM
RodnoR
DagorlaD
NeithaN

Nerwen · 02-02-2010, 02:47 PM

EstË

–And I believe this may be the first ever legitimate thread begun by a spambot.

Well, this wasn't legitimate when she/it started, but you turned it around!

Regrettably, I think you're right in that this one will have a short shelf life.
However,....

NanduhirioN

Nerwen · 02-02-2010, 10:24 PM

LuiniL
HaletH

Pitchwife · 02-03-2010, 02:49 AM

Nerwen · 02-03-2010, 06:46 AM

GothmoG

And how about

RangeR?

Morsul the Dark · 02-03-2010, 07:29 AM

Sacksville-BagginS (I don't know if that counts

.)

Nerwen · 02-03-2010, 08:27 AM

Hey, Lucy! Are hyphens allowed?

Wait, where'd she go?

*shrugs*

Well, then– hyphen time!

Haudh-en-ElletH
Nan-tathreN

Erendis · 02-04-2010, 06:20 AM

Let me see...
Ah,I have some!

Bob(from the Pancing Poney)
Rhudaur
Emerie
And of course

Elestrirne
Sorry for the spelling,but I don't have these tones.

Nerwen · 02-04-2010, 07:05 AM

Very good, Erendis. I knew there had to be another "R" one.

...However...

*adopts stern expression*

I'm afraid I can not accept "NaiN II" as a different name from "NaiN". I'm sure lucyyenic, were she– gulp!– still with us, would agree.

Morsul the Dark · 02-04-2010, 08:05 AM

BilboB (the inbred cousin no one talks about...)

Nerwen · 02-04-2010, 05:38 PM

Not even Tolkien..

ElenwË
(Mt) DolmeD
AngelicA (Baggins)
RagniR
AnardilyA (Aldarion's pet-name)

OK,OK,don't shoot a poor-isolatedinEmerie-wannabe-qween of Numenor!
The II just to say which Nain he is.If you like it better this way,I change it
(former place of Nain II)
Odo (Proudfoot)
Este
Landroval

Nerwen · 02-05-2010, 05:42 AM

Yes, but the point is, Náin's been done already.

Erendis · 02-06-2010, 06:57 AM

Oh,I didn't see that and I'm terribly sorry!
I 'll erase it right away(no wish to be on trial for copyright)

Ibrîniðilpathânezel · 02-07-2010, 07:28 PM

Given the lineage of this thread, possibly the most appropriate Tolkien-related word:

MathoM.

Babidi Buu · 02-08-2010, 02:05 PM

GothmoG!

Hmm...

EntulessE (the ship)
RochalloR (the horse)
EglantinE (Brooks?)
AnaryA (the day of the week)
AnarrimA (the constellation)

Pitchwife · 02-10-2010, 02:05 PM

OnodlÓ (aka Entwash)

Mithalwen · 02-13-2010, 06:38 AM

Pushing it a bit but how about Nibs Cotton and Nick Cotton (not the Eastenders one)- in Lucy's definitive absence I will accept Nerwen's judgement... she has the name for it....

Nerwen · 02-13-2010, 07:39 PM

Hmmn. That's a hard one to call.

Ah! If only Lucy were still with us. I'm sure she'd know what to do.

Lucy? Is that you? So there's no reason we can't have two-word names? Lucy?

Eorl of Rohan · 06-27-2010, 09:18 AM

How about GlaurunG, the Father of Dragons?

Nerwen · 06-28-2010, 12:55 AM

Sorry, Eorl, but I got Glaurung way back at #5.

Inziladun · 06-29-2010, 03:02 PM

Finally found another:

NulukkizdîN (Dwarven name for Nargothrond)
