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.

    Drug

    by: Czars

    You are a drug to me
    I never ever thought it otherwise
    And I love the lies you told to me
    While looking me directly in my eyes
    This is not ecstasy
    But it's better than cocaine
    And you know that I will miss you when you're gone
    But I'm not equipped to play this game
    You know your words they don't mean
    Anything to me
    They only serve to fatten up the prey
    And when it's time to take them
    To the slaughterhouse
    You slice their throats, continue on your way
    This is not jepoardy
    And it's not your high school prom
    And you know that I will miss you when you're gone
    But I'm not equipped to be your mom
    You are a drug to me
    I never ever thought it otherwise
    And I love the lies you told to me
