List of Middle-earth Elves

In J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium, Elves are one of the races that inhabit a fictional Earth, often called Middle-earth, and set in the remote past. They appear in ''The Hobbit'' and in ''The Lord of the Rings''. Their complex history is described in ''The Silmarillion'', as well as in the ''Unfinished Tales'' and ''The History of Middle-earth''.
The following is an alphabetically ordered list of Elves that are named in Tolkien's works. It excludes the Half-elven such as Elrond and Arwen.
Elvish names have meanings in the Elvish languages devised by Tolkien, e.g. Quenya, Noldorin, Goldogrin, Sindarin.
Tolkien decided late in his life that Elves of the Second Clan who lived in Eldamar bore several names:
*"father-name" (Quenya ''ataressë''), given by the father
*"mother-name" (''amilessë''), given by the mother
*"after-name" (''epessë''), a nickname given by others later in life
*"self-name" (''kilmessë''), assumed by oneself
Most elves in Tolkien's writing appear with only one name.

==A==

*
Aegnor
:Aegnor was a Noldorin Elf, a son of Finarfin and lord of the Noldor.
:Aegnor was the elder brother of Galadriel and younger brother of Finrod Felagund and Angrod; together with them joined the Exile of the Noldor from Valinor. Aegnor was "renowned as one of the most valiant of the warriors...; in wrath or battle the light of his eyes was like flame (gave rise to his 'prophetic' mother-name ), though otherwise he was a generous and noble spirit".
:Later in Beleriand he was a vassal of Finrod and together with Angrod held the highlands of Dorthonion against Morgoth, but both were slain in the Dagor Bragollach.
:Aegnor never married. He was in love with the mortal Andreth, but because it was wartime did not make his intentions towards her clear, and was killed soon after.
:The name Aegnor (pronounced ), is a Sindarized form of his Quenya mother-name Aicanáro or Aicanar (), meaning "Fell-fire", apparently given with regards to his character. His father-name was Ambaráto (in Telerin Quenya), meaning "High Noble".
:In earlier versions of Tolkien's books (cf. ''The History of Middle-earth''), the character's name was ''Egnor''. In some of the earliest stories (cf. ''The Book of Lost Tales''), this was the name of the father of Beren (who then was a Noldorin Elf, not a Man as in later writings). It is unlikely that this earlier Egnor was the same character.
:The name ''Aegnor'' was assigned to the movie-only character Figwit for the trading card game.
*
Amarië
:Amarië (pronounced ) was a Vanyarin Elf who was in love with Finrod Felagund, and he with her. She did not follow him to Middle-earth. Finrod never married anyone else while in Middle-earth. It is noted in ''The Lay of Leithian'' that Finrod was soon allowed to return to life in Valinor, and "now dwells with Amarië", so they probably were wed later.
*
Amdír
:Amdír was an Elven king during the Second Age. He only appears in ''Unfinished Tales'', a posthumously published collection of writings edited by Tolkien's son Christopher. He was conceived as a Sindarin Elf from Doriath who left east into Eriador after the War of Wrath. He took over the realm of Lórinand (later called Lothlórien) from Silvan Elves who had had no lords before, south of where Oropher (father of Thranduil the Elvenking of ''The Hobbit'' and grandfather of Legolas of ''The Lord of the Rings'') established a realm among the Silvan Elves of Mirkwood.
:Tolkien wrote that Amdír was killed in the War of the Last Alliance of Elves and Men in , during the Battle of Dagorlad. He and his troops were cut off from their allies into marshland, where more than half of them, including the King, were lost. The area later became known as the Dead Marshes. After his death his son Amroth became King of Lórinand.
:In another version of the events, Tolkien called the character Malgalad.
*
Amras
:Amras was the twin brother of Amrod, son of Fëanor and Nerdanel. Together they were the youngest of seven children, all male. Amras followed his father and his brothers to Middle-earth to war against the Dark Lord Morgoth, against the wishes of their guardians, the angelic, even godlike Valar.
:Amras' father-name in Quenya is Telufinwë, "Last Finwë" (after his grandfather Finwë; also he was the youngest and last son). His mother-name is Ambarussa, as was Amrod's originally.
*
Amrod
:Amrod was the twin brother of Amras son of Fëanor and Nerdanel. Amras followed his father and his brothers on their venture to Middle-earth.
:Amrod's father-name in Quenya is Pityafinwë, "Little Finwë". His mother-name was originally Ambarussa "top-russet", referring to his red hair (most of Tolkien's named Elves have dark hair). He shared this name with Amras. Later Nerdanel later called him Umbarto, "the Fated". His father, disturbed by it, changed it to Ambarto. Nevertheless, both twins called each other Ambarussa.
*
Amroth
:Amroth, son of Amdír, was a Sindarin Elf who succeeded his father as Lord of Lórien. He grew tired of Middle-earth and journeyed south to Edhellond, an old haven of his people, together with Nimrodel, his beloved.
:However, Nimrodel was lost in the Ered Nimrais, and Amroth delayed his departure to Valinor. As he finally set sail, he thought he saw Nimrodel on the quays, and he jumped overboard to swim back to her. He drowned in the Bay of Belfalas and never returned home.
:Dol Amroth in southern Gondor is named for him, as are several places in Lórien.
:In earlier versions of the legendarium, Amroth was briefly Galadriel and Celeborn's son, brother to Celebrían, but this idea was dropped.
*
Anairë
:Anairë was the Noldorin wife of Fingolfin and mother of Fingon, Turgon, Aredhel, and Argon. She did not leave Aman with her husband because of her friendship with Eärwen of the Teleri, the wife of Finarfin. Her name is Quenya and means "Holiest."
:Anairë is only mentioned in ''The History of Middle-earth''.
*
Angrod
:Angrod (pronounced ) was a son of Finarfin and lord of the Noldor.
:Angrod was the elder brother of Galadriel and Aegnor, and the younger brother of Finrod Felagund. He joined the Exile of the Noldor to Middle-earth, where together with Aegnor he held the highlands of Dorthonion against Morgoth. Aegnor and Angrod were both killed in the Dagor Bragollach.
:His wife was an Elven lady named Eldalótë. His son was Orodreth, who escaped to Nargothrond when his father was slain. Angrod was thus the grandfather of Gil-galad, Orodreth's son.
:His name was a Sindarized form of his Telerin Quenya name Angaráto , which means "Iron-noble". This is a reference to his hands of great strength and an early received ''epessë'' Angamaitë 'iron-handed'.
:In the published ''The Silmarillion'', Orodreth is given as Angrod's brother instead, following the extant narrative texts; Tolkien never altered them to reflect the later family tree.. This was an editorial decision by Christopher Tolkien which he admitted as a mistake.
*
Annael
:Annael was a Sinda of Mithrim. He fought in the Nírnaeth Arnoediad and hid in the caves of Androth in Mithrim after Hithlum was taken by the Easterlings. There he fostered Tuor. When Tuor was sixteen, Annael and his group attempted to move to the south, but were broken up by Orcs and Easterlings. Annael finally escaped Dor-lómin to Círdan's people in the far south of Beleriand.
*
Aredhel
:Aredhel is the daughter of Fingolfin and Anairë, sister of Fingon, Turgon and Argon, and mother of Maeglin. She was also known as ''Ar-Feiniel'' which in one translation means "The White Lady (of the Noldor)", as it is said that she was very pale, and wore only silver and white clothes. The names ''Aredhel'' ('noble Elf') and ''Ar-Feiniel'' ('noble white lady') were both originally intended to stand alone, replacing the name ''Isfin''.〔''History of Middle-earth'', Vol. XI, pp.317-18, while preparing ''The Silmarillion'' for publication Christopher Tolkien could not discover which name was intended to be used as her final name, and he therefore chose to use both names, a decision he later stated in the History of Middle-earth series was possibly unwarranted.〕
*
Argon (Arakáno)
:Argon was the fourth child of Fingolfin, High King of the Noldor in Beleriand. His mother was Anairë, and his brothers were Fingon, and Turgon. He had an older sister, Aredhel.
:His Quenya name was Arakáno ("High Commander"), named so partially for his character; this was also the mother-name of his father Fingolfin. Argon set foot on Middle-earth with his father and brothers, but he was killed during the Dagor-nuin-Giliath.
:Arakáno thus never received a true Sindarin name, but Argon was later devised for him in the records. It is recorded that this later became a popular name under the Eldar.
:Argon does not appear in the published ''The Silmarillion'' at all, as he only came to light in very late writings by Tolkien.
