If you've been following along, you know I'm thinking of trying to be Ithildin here on LJ. Except I don't want numbers. So it would have to be ithildin_something (though forever_ithildin sounds cool, but it's too long [pout] LJ limits you to 15 characters) See, I've been Ithildin since 1995, and when I got an LJ, I never actually thought I'd ever use it as more than a commenting account. Yes, I was wrong. LJ has sucked out my soul. Anyway, I ended up picking a username on the spot, without thinking much about it. Ithidrial was an Elvish name I'd created for something once upon a time, and it had "Ith" in it, which is what most people call me.

So, I went through an English/Elvish dictionary, and came up with some likely combos. I may end up just sticking with ithidrial since I'm not sure it wouldn't confuse people to switch, but we'll see. Comments and suggestions welcome!

FYI: Ithildin means 'monnstar' in Elvish and is the glowy silver stuff on the Doors of Moria





Thanks!
