I should have gotten Arwen.

Glorfindel · 01-22-2015, 01:22 PM

Here's a hint on 8 for you: He renamed it to its current name.

doubleshuffle · 01-22-2015, 01:42 PM

Reginald?

Glorfindel · 01-22-2015, 02:05 PM

erm, no. He (Aragorn) renamed The Sword That Was Broken (Narsil) when it was forged anew. The name that he (Aragorn) chose for it is what it is still known as

doubleshuffle · 01-22-2015, 02:09 PM

Yes, and I thought that name might be Reginald, since I believe that Reginald would be a mighty heroic-sounding name for a sword, so I just made a guess...

pdurrant · 01-22-2015, 03:25 PM

4) What was the Dwarves name for Gandalf?
Olorin (although I suspect there's an accent on one of those Os.)

8) What did Aragorn (re)name his sword?
Anduril (Flame of the West)

Hey, I had the number of syllables and nearly all the letters right. I think I deserve half a point!

4 is wrong, but 8 is correct

Ah - Olórin was his name in the West.

No, his dwarvish name won't come to me, nor will the elven name for Rivendell.
