There are many Elvish languages. As Hapira said, 'one' in Quenya is minë. In Sindarin (and I only know this through a website) 'one' is min.

oy... actually I found a different solution I was talking to a friend and he said that I could do it in orcish, or the Darktoungue which "The One' which is what I ame referring to, is Ash so I used that

You may not need this anymore, but I thought it was interesting. It is a pretty complete English/Quenya dictionary.

You could also say "one" as in "alone", which is er . Maybe you could use the name Erminë: "One and Alone"?

Which might be translated 'solitary', I guess.

'Er' could mean one, as Eru mesans The One
