Female Names
Hello,
I need some good Middle Earth (From LOTR or The Sil or w/e) female names. Thanks!

Elenwë is, IMO, a nice name (and not much used). Elbereth is also good...

Do you want names already used, or original? For Elves? Quenya or Sindarin?

What about some Dwarvish name:
DÃ*s..... Well, that´s about it.

To make a Quenya or Sindarin feminine name:
Get the wordlists from the Ardalambion. Choose a word with the desired meaning. If that word ends with a vowel, change the vowel to ë. If it ends in a consonent, add Ã*an, wen, or ë. Most importantly, make sure the result sounds good. (I once met an unfortunate fanfic character named Dingelwen... a perfectly correct name meaning 'silent star maiden', but who would want a name like Dingelwen?)

what are you saying? Are you saying that "Ruinel" (meaning red flame star) sounds bad?  |

No! There are other endings that can be used, but those particular endings tend to make the best names. Ruinel is a nice name.
Dingelwen sounds a bit silly if you overlook the meaning.

Reminds me of Santa, for some reason.
Eleriel is a nice name.
