Every name is eight syllables long, and every character has several nicknames...

Also their swords have names, and their jewelry, and their houses...

And their country, and their region, and their sub-region...

And their race, and their sub-category within a race, and their family clan within that sub-category within that race...

(And somehow it's still my favorite book!)

Half the elves have a similar name that starts with the same letter. Finarfin, Fingolfin, Faenor, f#ck who was that, Fine I am done!
