Re: Yet another Character naming Thread, but not what you think.

Actually, because JRR went into some detail on each of these at some point or another in The Silmarillion, I'm OK with the F's amongst the Noldor. It's Feanor's sons 'C' sons (Celegorm, Curufin, and Caranthir, the last of whom shares the dubious distinction with Amrod and Amras of barely being mentioned in the book) who seem faceless to me...

Re: Yet another Character naming Thread, but not what you think.

I agree with the prior statement...three syllables vs one makes for quite a different sound, and besides that IDK if you noticed but many parents give their children names that either start with the same letter or rhym (not only for twins). If you're feeling the name and it flows well keep it...if your not sure then maybe the issue isn't that it's the same letter, maybe it doesn't fit the character. Just my opinion. Good luck!
