From Crossroads' name generator, I come out as Elrond Elensar, or, as Axel Fendersson, Huor Elanessë.

Kinkajou's generator gave me these:

My real name:
Hobbit: Sudoc Roots of Hardbottle
Elf: Delonna Son of Fëanor
Dwarf: Sisin of Erebor
Human (aren't I one of these already?): Glicyn, Ranger of Ithilien
Wizard: Sharkey the Smith (Sharkey? That doesn't sound very wizardly)

Axel Fendersson:
Hobbit: Driam Fleam, Warden of Westmarch (Okay, now that one just sounds stupid)
Elf: Sengwen Shipwright
Dwarf: Lufur Zirak
Human: Vec of the Nine Servants
Wizard: Olórin the Ring-maker

in elvish as a hobbitt
real name:
Huor Cúthalion Popo Bolger of Newbury
forum name:
Gelmir Ancalimë Bodo Knotwise of Michel Delving
game name:
Lenwë Culnámo Fosco Proudfoot

Actually, you've gotten the wrong definition in this case. This word has its own special meaning in the Tolkienverse.



Sharkey was actually an alias of Saruman during the scouring of the Shire in Return of the King (which, thankfully, was omitted from the movies). So it is wizardly, though I agree that it doesn't sound like it.

I wouldn't have said 'wrong' exactly, but perhaps less useful to this specific example.


Ah, I should have realised it'd be something like that. I realised a few months ago that it was approximately half of my life ago that I read Lord of the Rings, so it is perhaps unsurprising that my memory is a little shakey on some of the details.

real name in elvish: Amras Helyanwë
boardname in elv...: Arafinwë (my board name is one word)
hobbit real name: Berilac Foxburr of Loamsdown (kinda weird)
hobbit board name: Moro of Loamsdown (see second one

not bad

Where's the Hobbit name generator?

there's a link to it at the top of the page, Plangkye. (or at least there is as I post this, seems like the guys having bandwidth issues)

Real Name:
Elvish: Finrod Eledwhen (hmm... I guess Sam gets the same result as Ssj)
Hobbit: Mungo Burrows of Tuckborough (quite a name)

Board Name: "viva lacrotch"
Elvish: Inglor of Nargothrond (sounds like someone gargling)
Hobbit: Ponto Hornblower of Waymoot (best...name...EVAR!)
EDIT: I won't elaborate on this 'caus iits kinda POOPish, but George Bush gets an *interesting* result in the Hobbit generator.

My real name was Amrod something.. so I just tried 'verloren' and I got:

choose wiser.

Very mystical Elf name there.

Heh.. my Wizard name is "Annatar the Ring-maker"
Dude, I make rings.
Legadrielith Mariner? Woah, that's a mouthful for an Elf name.
Elearyan Bunce of Bywater...Hmm. I get funny names. Even for a Hobbit.

Edit: With my online name, my wizard name is "Ilmarë , Queen of Doriath "
My hobbit name is Clealyan Jackley , Princess of the Halflings
Elf name is Tódia Lady of Lórien
And human name is Lissi Queen of Rhovanion
Amond the dwarves I'm just a person.. But dang I've got to be rich.

Real elf name = Daelonna Undómiel
Shortened real elf name = Lealonna Aranwion
Board elf name= Elavyan Felagund

Real hobbit Name = Redo Smallburrow , Mayor of the Shire
Shortened real hobbit name = Bebo 'Broadbelt' Ness of Hardbottle
Board Heobbit = Driarry 'Headstrong' Worrywort , Ring-bearer

Real Name Wizard = Arien the White (ROCK ON)
Shortened real name = Incánus the Doomsman of the Valar
Board Name using = Tilion , Grey Pilgrim

Dwarf name = Dunar the Brave
Dwarf Board Name = Tobur Oakenshield

Real name:

Wizard: Saruman, Lord of the West
Elf: Dicla, King of the Noldor


Board name:

Wizard: Salmar, Lord of the Rings
Elf: Gweryan, King of Nargothrond
Human: Owaedoc King of the Dead


So, is Salmar someone special that I just don't know about, or is it just some random name with a random title?

Also, for those wondering about how the first-mentioned generator works, it just takes the first and last letter of your name and uses them to find you Elven or Hobbit name. A bit lame IMHO.

I used three versions of my name, and I'm only going to put the interesting ones here.

It really liked my real name, it gave me very nice titles for that:
Nyll Oddfoot , Princess of the Halflings (Hobbit)
Unorfidë Lady of Lórien (Elf)
Elulle Queen of Númenor (Human)
Curunír , Powers of the World (Wizard)

'Betsy Bookworm' gave me a very long one:
Ibalissi of the Younger Children of Ilúvatar (Human)

A shortened version of my real name got:
Melia the Simple (Wizard)

Yay! I'm simple! Maybe I should go find something shiny to be distracted by...

My Elvis name is "The King"

(what's that? Elvish name? Not Elvis name? Oh!)

Oh nevermind.
