1 nárë
also short nár, noun "flame" NARsup1/sup, Narqelion. Translated "fire" in some names, see Aicanáro, Fëanáro where nár apparently has the masculine ending -o, though in the latter name it may also be the genitive ending since Fëa-náruo/u is translated Spirit uof/u Fire. At one point, Tolkien mentioned nār- as the word for fire as an element PE17:183. Cf. ruinë as the word for a fire a concrete instance of fire in the same source. -
2 morion
noun "son of the dark" LT1:261. In Fíriel's Song, Morion is translated "dark one", referring to Melkor; this may be a distinct formation not including the patronymic ending -ion "son", but rather the masculine ending -on added to the adjective morë, mori- "dark". -
3 colla
passive participle "borne, worn" compare \#col- "bear"; also used as a noun = "vestment, cloak" MR:385. Variant form collo "cloak" SA:thind in the name Sindicollo q.v., sc. colla with a masculine ending. -
4 Fëanáro
masc. name "Spirit of Fire", in Sindarized form Fëanor SA:nár, PHAY, MR:206. The word apparently includes the masculine ending -o. Compare fëa, nár. -
5 nár
noun "flame", also nárë NARsup1/sup.Translated "fire" in some names, see Aicanáro, Fëanáro where nár apparently has the masculine ending -o added to it. According to PE17:183, nár- is fire as an element a concrete fire or blaze is rather called a ruinë. -
6 -ndil
ending that Tolkien likened to Old English "-wine", sc. "-friend" as part of names, e.g. Elendil, Eärendil NIL/NDIL; see the entry -ndil. Also long -dildo VT46:4, and possibly -ndilmë as the corresponding feminine form see Vardilmë. also -dil ending occurring in many names, like Amandil, Eärendil; it implies devotion or disinterested love and may be translated "friend" SA:noundil; this ending is "describing the attitude of one to a person, thing, course or occupation to which one is devoted for its own sake" Letters:386. Compare -ndur. It is unclear whether the names derived with the ending -ndil are necessarily masculine, though we have no certain example of a woman's name in -ndil; the name Vardilmë q.v. may suggest that the corresponding feminine ending is -ndilmë. -
