LotR Names...

Halbarad of the Dunedain · 08-16-2004, 12:28 AM

I recently got a new puppy and can't think of a good name for her. I wanted to use a LotR or Tolkien related name if possible and so I now seek the aid of my fellow Mooters. It is a female dog, best way to describe her is that she is a small, white dog; part poodle part chiuaua. The best I have come up with is Vana or Maia?

How about Yavanna? Or Arwen?

Halbarad of the Dunedain · 08-16-2004, 01:20 AM

I don't really want anything to long like Yavanna and nothing toooo well known(and over used) like Arwen.

Hmm... Estella, Diamond, and Goldberry are a few more.

Since it's a white, female dog, how about Nimloth?

Attalus · 08-16-2004, 10:26 AM

Elanor? The little white flower that grew only in Lorien? Whitfoot?

katya · 08-16-2004, 12:06 PM

Oh, Elanor, good one- for a small white dog. It sounds like a real name though.
I don't know. I can't think of any. Just go with something you can feel confident about.

Rosie Gamgee · 08-16-2004, 01:25 PM

I like Whitfoot myself. How about Snowmane, or some of the other horse names in LotR?
Nimrodel?
Lobelia?

Elanor the Fair · 08-17-2004, 03:28 AM

My vote is for Elanor!!

Haradrim · 08-19-2004, 04:19 PM

How about Haselfas or Erod?

Gee, I wonder why? Too bad it's not a big dog, 'cause then you could go with Huan.

Haradrim · 08-20-2004, 12:52 AM

Oooh! I like Huan. But its too small. Maybe something like Mamukil and make fun of the fact that its so small. Also most non-tolkienites wont know what Mamukil means and therefore just think its a cool but wierd name.

Telcontar_Dunedain · 08-22-2004, 10:51 AM

How about Nienna?

Haradrim · 08-22-2004, 10:54 AM

oh niena I like that one. How about after one of the rings of the elves. They all have nice little dog names

I've been chasing grace; Grace ain't so easily found One bad hand can devil a man, chase him and carry him down. I've got to get out of here, just give me One Good Year!
