[edit] Quenya Name of Fëanor

There seems to be some confusion between Quenyan names of Fëanor:

  • Amras refers to him as Telufinwë, "Last Finwë"
  • Amrod refers to him as Pityafinwë, "Little Finwë"
  • Fëanor includes Curufinwë/Kurufinwë, "Skillful (son of) Finwë"

There is no confusion. In the twins' articles it does not read nor mean "Amrod's/Amras' father's name", but "father name". Their father's name would be Fëanor, but the twins' father name means the name they were given by their father. If you are not familliar with the naming traditions of Tolkien Elves, you can read it at Elf (Middle-earth)#Naming conventions. 217.95.210.203 14:48, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
