Names

Here’s a compilation of some Quenya names already requested to me according to each one’s etymology. If your name isn’t already in the list, feel free to ask me through reply here. I’ll be glad to help everyone!

Note on surnames: There are no surnames in Quenya. None. But how can I get my full name then? Easy! Same principle ancient Israelites used, genealogy. So, if you’re a man, take your father’s name in Quenya and apply the genitive suffix (-o) which means ‘of’ (origin). If you’re a woman, your mother’s name. In the end, what you’ll have will be something like, for instance: Túrin (son of) Húrin or Lúthien (daughter of) Melian. You need to be careful only with some rules about the genitive suffix, but this will be treated later and deeper in the Smart Course page.

  1. If you have time, translate please “Agnessa” :)

  2. Hello again! So, I’m also interested in my name and my girlfriend name ;)
    Ismael & Rafaela. I do some research and i found that:

    Rafaela:
    First i found “Rafael” in translated in some site and was “Eruenvinyatano”
    So,
    Raphael is a name of Hebrew origin meaning “God is Healer” (wikipedia)
    Eru << divine name "the One" = God (VT43:32, VT44:16-17) , "the One God" (Letters:387)
    envinyata << #envinyata- "heal", literally "renew";

    Then i tryed to derive Rafaela feminine form of Rafael:
    Eru << God
    envinyata << heal
    në <> divine name “the One” = God (VT43:32, VT44:16-17) , “the One God” (Letters:387) ;
    lasta- >> vb. “listen”, also lasta adj. “listening, hearing” (LAS2, PE17:56) ; cf. adj. asalaste (*aþa-) adj. “easily heard” (PE17:148);
    and
    -no >> “Masculine, Male Doer” It can be combined with adjectives, verbs, and nouns. It makes whatever is attached to it a masculine name. When it is attached to verbs, it makes it a male is the “doer” of the action. (also from Rafael, with the -no sufix…)

    This way I get “Eruenvinyatanë” to Rafaela and “Erulastano” for Ismael.

    But i did it just with no much time and with almost nothing of Quenya knowledge =/

    some sources:

    With my regards,

    • Good….your method is pretty good! I liked it!

      There is a little tiny issue with Rafaela name. I can remake it for you here.

      Ismael is well composed. No doubts about that!

      I will include your name in due time and give the credits for you! (of course)

      Well done, man!

  3. ok, thank you very much! I’ll wait online for vittoria :)

  4. Hello! I would very much like a Quenya translation for Ellen. Thank you!

  5. Any chance to translate “Jesus”? That’s my name

  6. I would like to request the name “Freya”, please.

  7. Hey! traslate my name ‘Júlia’ for quenya please?

  8. oh thank you very much! it’s beautiful :) may I please ask you another name? I forgot that my sister wanted to write my first and second name, so I’d like to do it too! my sister’s second name is Vittoria, would you please make this one, too? I post here the origin of the name, so you won’t lose too much time for me :) thank you very much again, you’re so kind!
    Vittoria
    English translation/equivalent: Victoria

    Origin: Derived from the Latin victor and means “winner, victorious”; in the Christian tradition refers to the victory of good over evil or spiritual salvation.

    Name Day/Onomastico: December 23—in memory of St. Victoria the Virgin, martyred in Rome in 249.

    Related Name/Other Italian Forms: Vittorina; feminine form of Vittorio

    • Well…Vittoria will be on the line then. It’s purely the feminine form of Victor (which is already composed here) but as feminine, it is a little bit different from its masculine related name.

      Please, wait patiently in the line. It’s not about losing time answering your request, it’s respecting the line (40 requests right now). So, I warn you: it’s not gonna be fast.

  9. As you told me, I ask you here my request :D would you please make me the name Giorgia? Thank you very much! your job is awsome :)

    • Hey hey hey….I have a little surprise for you!

      I took a look at Giorgia etymology and guess what? It’s already composed at my site! Giorgia has got the same etymology of Georgina! They have the same origin and derived from the same source. So, basically they are the same! You can check how it would be written in Quenya right here: http://quenya101.com/names/g-names/ right now….no need to get in line and wait!

      Cool, huh?

  10. Hello! Could you translate my name (Irene), please?

  11. Hello!!!! Can you translate the name “Ellie” to Quenya?
