I think it's close between Fingolfin and Beren. Fingolfin because he's my current favorite elf king, and Beren because he's the only man in the Silmarillion to marry the most beautiful elf in Middle Earth and beyond.

I like Beleg, too, Artanis - the strong, mysterious type, and what a good pal to Turin.
I'm reading thru The Lay of Leithian, and got to the part where Finrod and Beren were before Thu - I had to read CRT's little commentary before I realized that the false names they gave to Thu were their own names backwards! (i.e., Nereb and Dungalef)! Did you guys realize that? Let's see - Dornif, Ronaef, Geleb, Rout, ...

Oy, what an image!
I think I'll go back to thinking of Tuor and Beleg!

Beren means 'bears' (plural of bear). This is rather cool because it reminds me of scandinavian myths. But Beleg means 'siege' which is still something I can live with but it also means something else. *sniggers* I don't know the right English translation but it's the things you put on a slice of bread or a sandwich. This might just be me but it is such an odd name for a heroic elf. *can't stop sniggering*

That's funny, Eärniel - I wonder how many of Tolkien's names mean something in other languages? It reminds me of the name of a car in the US - "Nova" - supposed to refer to the star explosion, but also means "Doesn't go" (no va) in Spanish! Bad name for a car!
Does Beleg mean something like "baloney" - the dubious mixture of processed meats that goes into a sandwich? "Baloney" also has two meanings in the US - it also means something that's stupid or unbelievable. That would be pretty funny to have an elf hero named "Baloney"! "Bear" is a nice name for Beren

LOL!
In New Zealand, baloney means "rubbish." We call it luncheon meat.
