Perhaps 'Turgon' might have been better? That is the good thing when Forums are new, you get choice of the prime names. This time next year I doubt the name 'Turgon' will still be available...


And indeed welcome.

Thanks for the welcome mouth.  As far as the name, without getting pretty creative and not wanting to use names in the book itself, i thought a mixture of two of my favorite charactors would work.

Turgolfin is a fine name; it might mean "Mastery of Magic Skill" in Noldorin, or a Quenya name "Victory of Wise Finwë" adapted into Sindarin phonology. I like it!

I second Tyrhael on this one, the fact that it has a meaning as well is even better...
Oh, and trust Tyrhael, he's the languages master

Welcome to TF Turgolfin!

I'm new here as well and already getting acquainted. Hope you have fun with the discussions. And, as the others pointed out, interesting name! :)

Thanks

Hello Turgolfin and welcome. I couldn't just ignore your avatar, which in my opinion is one of the best on the forums, and not just the color that amazed me but also the character has something special glimmering in his eyes. I hope you'll keep it a while.

Further on, I'm thrilled to see our family growing and its not just the number that makes me happy but also the importance of some names. Hope you'll find our site usefull to you and a place where always to return when need for Tolkien debates. Enjoy your stay and explore the place. You'll like it in here.

The time shall be your loyal ally if you'll manage to understand the meaning of TF and I have a feeling that you will as I have already noticed.

Greetings
