These are all lovely. Though goodness, Ayanûzaþarošošarušur is a bit of a mouthful—how on Middle-earth is it pronounced?

I love that making them all into Maiar leads to such wonderfully evocative names, and that the Notary still gets the One Good DeeDubs Joke I Ever Told worked in there. Parmiel is entirely right to record that name. =]

Now, as a single person, I think I can translate her name into a full Tau'sia name. Let's give it a shot!

So Celebestel means Silver Hope in the original Sindarin, so let's stick with that as a base theme. Silver has associations with water for the Tau'faan, much as it does with certain human cultures, to the point where fejel'fri (silver-mouth) and por'fri'ea (mouth full of water) are both terms to describe people who are what we'd call silver-tongued. I think this plops Kaitlyn square in the Water caste. We can add a little poesy to Kaitlyn's sept of origin too; septs are almost akin to nations within the T'au Empire, and as such I think it would be fine to add a more poetic version of America's famous nickname (no, not "the Great Satan", the other one) in this context as Earth is still divided. We can also add more than just the one name, because, well, T'au names are similar to accolades. They get a whole collection. =]

As such, here's my work:-

Por'vre Eia'li'an Fejel'oshi Gun'ran'yi (Silvertide Flower of Compassion, Magister of the Water Caste of the Wide Free Land Sept, lit: Water Caste Magister Wide-Free-Land Silver-Tide Compassion-Flower)

Silvertide, as she would likely be known to her friends, refers to the tide of charm and hope that she bears; Flower of Compassion implies that her presence is a gift of compassion to those who meet her. Eia'li'an is a version of the Land of the Free, and also it sounds a bit like alien so I couldn't help myself. Lastly, magister is a median rank, neither too far above or too far below another.

Hope she likes it. =]

Celebestel would become Gēlenjaelarys in High Valyrian ('Silver hope', my take at what the two words Gēlenkys Jaelarys would become as a compound name), and Athzalarvizhadoon in Dothraki ('hope from silver') from athzalar ('hope') and the ablative form of vizhadi ('silver').

Alternatively, 'She who works her will' in High Valyrian would be Ziksogaomakio, 'one-who-takes-action-as-she-wishes', from ziksoso (as one wishes), gaomagon ('to act') and -kio (an agentive suffix). In Dothraki, this would be Zalatikhatakeesi 'one who does the results of their wants', from zalat ('to want something to happen'), -ikh (a suffix meaning 'the result of something'), tat ,'to do' and -ak, 'agentive suffix' with the feminine ending -eesi.

Elcalion

...could translate to Tikvat-Kesef, תקות כסף--no, I have that wrong. That's hope of silver, not silver hope (with silver as a noun rather than an adjective).

What I actually want is Tikvah Ksufah, תקווה כסופה--silver (adj.) hope. There we go. Rather pretty, I think!

~Z

(Also, thank you for the Khuzdul! Longer response to that will happen eventually, but suffice it to say I'm pretty happy with the name options. Also, look up makam or maqam and prepare to be amused.)

Toki Pona tries to pull off 120-odd, but 12 is a whole new level. I assume it's designed for naming rather than sentences? It's sort of like a list of elements, I guess; the idea of 'everything is made up from the [12] elements' has a certain resonance with various historical concepts.

Out of curiousity, what is the actual meaning of Minalli and Lussand? I would assume the former was either 'fire' or 'light', but then why would you have hesitated to choose them over 'harm' to mean bright star? Lussand I can't even guess. (And dare I ask what the last two runes are?) (And, come to think of it, does the language have a name?)

... come to think of it, I have a language that functions on similar lines, with each letter in a word having a meaning. 'Snowblaze' would be something like:

Ohydukkadg - letter for letter, 'one time-peace-at times-motion-others-many-complexity-now-motion-power'. Each word is pretty much grammatically 'backwards' compared to English, with the split between the two Ks (both 'plural' and 'complexity'). So the translation is something like: Many others fell over time bringing peace at one time, but power moves now to make complexity. Snow+fire.

hS

I'm amused by the fact that 'Nesher HaTzel' sounds like what you get if you take 'Huinesoron' and shake it around vigorously in a Hebrew box; I know it's not all that close, but there's enough sounds shared between them...

As for the final form, I love that 'Tzl' in the middle to bits; I'm probably saying it wrong, but it's really satisfying. It reminds me of the Welsh 'LL', in that it's a bunch of consonants that the English tongue isn't used to putting together.

As thanks for your hard work, I've done something I wouldn't normally. Khuzdul (Dwarvish) is supposedly based on the Semitic languages, but has no words anywhere close to 'we' or 'sing'. (The best I could do would be something like Inbaraimênu, 'horn upon you', ie, we're playing our trumpets at you, but that's a nasty looking kludge.) But... there is a very large Neo-Khuzdul corpus. I think it was started by David Salo, famed Sindarin scholar, but his site is gone, and the current centre of post-Tolkien Dwarvish appears to be the Dwarrow Scholar.

In Neo-Khuzdul, I've come up with four ways to translate Zingenmir:

-Makmathi is the basic phrase 'we sing'. It seems to come from a verb based on the consonants [KMTh]; the initial 'm' is the pronoun, while the vowels indicate the form of the verb.

-Makammathi is an intensified form of the verb, with the middle consonant doubled and a vowel inserted before it. It means 'we still sing', or 'we continue to sing'. I'm imagining it as a defiant statement.

-Nâkmathi is based on the same verb, but here the added 'na' indicates 'We sing together.

-Nâkammathi is another is another 'energetic' form, obviously enough meaning 'We still sing together'.

hS

Quenya: Vinya Quermaquen (New Wheel-rider) - 'Rider' would normally be translated roquen, but that's a compound meaning 'horse-person'. So you get to be a 'wheel-person'. (Hilariously enough, querma, the only Quenya word for 'wheel', actually means 'spinning wheel' or 'turntable'.)

Sindarin: Rasgdailben Gîw (New Footcart-rider) - Again 'rider' is actually 'person'. Sindarin has no word for 'wheel', so you get wagon+feet; if I'd used the singular Rasg+dâl, it might have sounded like you ride about in a wheelbarrow.

Adunaic: Idô-Rothkarbatun (Now Trackhorse-man) - Yikes. Idô is 'now'; I've used it here for 'this is who Skater is now'. Roth is 'track', describing an unpaved road, but derived from a term that means the furrow made by ploughing; the intent is 'narrow line', as might be made by a skate. Karbat is 'pair of horses' (from karab+at); by denoting them as a natural pair, which horses generally aren't, I've tried to indicate that they're metaphorical. Finally, -un is an explicit masculine marker, put in to make the name about the skater, not the skates. The female equivalent would be -in.

Valarin: Aþar Šebethašata (Fixed-time air-hair) - Aþar means 'fixed time' or 'festival'; like above, I'm aiming for 'right now'. Air+hair is meant to imply your hair streaming back as you race around. It probably wouldn't be synonymous with 'airhead'. ;)

Black Speech: Globum (Foolishness) - Orcs have no truck with skating, nor with any form of 'personal change and growth'. They just think you're daft.

hS

"Neo" would definitely be Andris, but "Skater..." I'll go with Elcran-Parsin ("person who moves"). Kind of a cop-out, but anything else would probably require inventing a lot of new letters, which I can't really do for this.

That makes you Andris Elcran-Parsin

I have this hunch that 'skater' in Hebrew is...'skater', with a pronunciation more like 'skay-tehr'. Let's find out!

Okay. I stand corrected! 'Skater' is in use as-is, but 'Makhlik' is also pretty popular and seems to be the main term! This makes you...

HaMakhlik HaKhadash, המחליק החדש--The New Skater! Congrats :)

(hah-mahkh-leek hah-khah-dahsh for pronunciation).

~Z

In High Valyrian, you are Arliegrevyaerēbagio, ('new wheel-traveller').

In Dothraki, I have come up with Sashfirverak, ('new round-traveller'), coining the verb firverat 'to skate' (literally 'to round-travel')

Elcalion

I like Kolverzanisshi - it's got a good rhythm to it.

In exchange, I offer you a bonus name for yourself:

Khuzdul: Ayakibil, 'Upon Silver'. The idea being that your thoughts are on the (silver) stars.

hS

(My vocabulary is completely limited, I don't even know where to start...) For Scapegrace, let's say Elcran-Dallstin-Ralith ("person-no-rules") which is about the closest I can get.

Wobbles... Parsine-Parsine, "Chaotic motion"... again, as close as I can get.

Now I have a word for "rules", the Notary can become Ralith-Elcran "Rules-person".

(This is not the kind of thing my language is designed to do in-universe).

Oh dear Lord. I refuse to translate Scapegrace as 'Bat-Bli'ya'al.' (Belial in the anglicization, though it seems to have taken on a new meaning in Christianity?) It does mean that, but it's, uh, also the general term (Biblical) for pretty much any wicked person or evildoer. Ouch. (According to this article in Mosaic, 'bli'ya'al' was taken to be a noun by Jews and a name by Christians--who decided it was either another term for Satan or the name of someone connected to him. Ooookay. Yeah. I'm not translating your name as this).

Which means I need to find something that more closely matches the actual definition of the word 'scapegrace' (Merriam-Webster says 'incorrigible rascal', whatever it is Google's throwing up--Oxford?--goes for 'a mischievous or wayward person'). I've tried other dictionaries: 'scapegrace' there gets me things like the translation of 'scapegoat', and 'schlemiel', which is more along the lines of someone who is unlucky or incompetent.

I'm going to go with Mardanit Kundasit, מרדנית קונדסית, Mischievous Rebel. There aren't very many terms for 'rascal' (one is used for a villain in films, apparently), though 'kundas' as a noun does show up as one (another is 'Pirkhakh', meaning, apparently, 'whippersnapper' :D). This might be a bit closer to 'prankster' than it should be, but it's definitely much better than going, 'hey, wanna be a scapegoat or an extremely wicked person?' So let's stick with that. It's also making me think of the Chameleon Circuit song "Teenage Rebel", which is nice (about the Doctor, if you haven't heard it).

Wobbles is very simply Mitnodedet, מתנודדת ('one who wobbles/is wobbling', feminine form). I rather like that, actually.

The Notary is...HaNotarionit, הנוטריונית apparently. Not too bad!

~Z

Scapegrace would be Dorȳbarysitsos, literally 'little disobedience'

Wobbles would be Elēnna, plural form of Elēnnon, 'movement back and forth'

Notary would be Vēttirurnekio, literally 'law observer'

Elcalion Cano'haido'shas

Probably Magnis-Elcran "(magically) powerful person". Or, for shining as in brightness, Minalli-Elcran

...the word 'hitztayen' can be used for both 'excel' and 'shine' (in the sense of shining talent or the like). This gives us Ish-Mitztayen, איש מצטין, 'excelling/shining man, man who excels/shines'. For a feminine form, we can do Isha-Mitztayenet, אישה מצטינית, though that changes the original meaning a bit.

Mind you, you don't technically need 'man' or 'woman' in there! Because Hebrew is a gendered language, words like 'creator' are never neutral--Makes-Things' translated name is actually '[male] creator [of] things'. So you could be Mitztayen, מצטין (literally '[male] exceller/shiner', less literally '[man who] excels/shines'), or, more likely, Mitztayenet, מצטינת, the feminine form, since this is supposed to be a feminine name.

~Z

Quenya: Lahtanettë. Lahta is the infinitive 'to excel'; nette combines the 'man' and diminutive parts, as 'little girl' or (colloquially) 'pretty little thing'. It's also used as a childish name for the ring finger (not used for the ring in Elvish culture) or the equivalent toe.

Sindarin: Eindhîreg, literally 'Excellent+man+diminutive'. As a girl's name, this would probably be given to someone who looked 'just like' her famous dad.

Adunaic: There is only one possible translation here: Izindu-bêth, 'true-sayer', after Cassandra of Troy. This is an attested Adunaic term.

Valarin: Amanaišalayanûz, 'Unmarred Ainu'. I can't form a diminutive of it, but given the massive religious connotations of the name, plus the -uz marking it as the name of a Vala, I don't think I should. As a bonus, when adapted into Quenya it would probably be something like Amisala, which is a diminutive of sorts.

Black Speech: The original name would be Durburuk, 'Orc-Queen', dominion being the only form of excellence in Mordor. But orcs being orcs, and 'ruler' being a pretty dangerous thing to go around calling yourself, it would quickly be debased into Durbuk.

hS

You would be (allowing for some elision of syllables) Jehikissaros, 'shining person'. I smooshed jehikire (shining) + issaros (person/being) cause 'Jehikireissaros' sounds too syllable-heavy.

Elcalion

Okay, it seems as though you have a few options here. The most obvious one is Bella (no relation to the English name, which is actually a distant variant of 'Elizabeth') but you could also go with Pulchra or Fōrmōsa.

Sarlissa which refers to a natural kind of beauty.

...(although, if it's what I think it is, it's been one of my favorites for years)...so, instead, have another option that doesn't begin with S!

You could just take Yafah, יפה, the feminine form of 'pretty, but, well...eh. It's nice enough, but very simple and used all the time in conversation. It does seem to be in use as a name, so I don't want to insult it (especially since I suspect I'd like it in context), but I like to look for more unusual words.

Instead, why not go for Na'ah, נאה? The dictionary gives it in the male form, Na'eh, which is why it's translating it as 'handsome' as well as 'pleasant' and 'good-looking'; 'beautiful' fits right in there. Personally, I kind of want to translate it as 'lovely', although the dictionary disagrees and gives me a bunch of other words for that. Either way, it's a nice word (and not the same root as Noa--that's נעה, which I believe has to do with movement (and is not the same as Noah, if anyone's wondering--in Hebrew that's No'akh, נח! Completely different, and probably means 'rest, repose', according to behindthename.com's translation).

~Z

In Elvish, obviously. ^_~

Quenya: Several words for 'beautiful', but my favourite is Vanima. You could also have Vanya, Linda, Calwa, or Vanessë ('beauty')... most of which are or come strikingly close to real names.

Sindarin: unless you're talking specifically about hair, the Sindarin words for 'beautiful' are bain and dail. Given that Bain is a male name in Lake-Town, I think I'd add a female suffix and give you Dailwen.

Adunaic: The word Nimîr is the word for elves, meaning 'the Beautiful'. We can add the adjective prefix an- to get the name Animir.

Valarin: What other possibility is there than Amanaišal, 'Unmarred'?

Black Speech: The Black Speech is notably a language without beauty, and no doubt they would be offended by it; I think you can only be Dug-Búbhosh, the Great Filth.

hS

Because Gevie means 'beautiful'.

how to translate "literature". "Doctor" would probably be Andris-Elcran "healing person," and literature... maybe "learning" which would correspond fairly well with magical power, which would be Magnis.

So that would make it Andris-Elcran-Magnis

...is to combine 'doctor' and 'literature' and get Sifrofeh, ספרופא or Sifrutfeh, ספרותפה or something? Hrm. 'Doctor' is 'rofeh', רופא, and literature is 'sifrut', ספרות. I think Sifrofeh works best--it looks like a combination of either 'literature' and 'doctor' or 'book' and 'doctor' (the root s.f.r. makes sifrut, but also sefer, book), and is also less clunky. Maybe you're a book doctor!

Ironically, Arabic apparently uses 'duktor' or 'doktor' (not completely sure if it's actually adapted to a U or if that's just the accent of whoever recorded that bit for Duolingo). Hebrew does also have 'doktor', but it's connected to PhDs rather than medicine.

~Z

Quenya: Tintóretecë. 'D' is not known as a first letter in any Quenya word, so I've substituted T (I do that myself when I need to). 'Tintore' is both TTR, and 'Heart-kindler', which is a decent word for doctor. 'Tece' is actually a verbal form of 'to write', so the whole comes out as something like '[D]TR who writes'.

Sindarin: It took a bit of wrangling, but I can give you Dîrathaegerthas, 'Man of healing and letters'. Okay, the T is a Th, but it's close enough. ^_^ (A shorter version is 'Dîrathaegirth', but I figured that final syllable was a bit embarassing in English.)

Adunaic: Adûnitîrbêth is 'west-kindler of words'. From a Numenorean perspective, the West is the land of health and immortality.

At this point I think I shall abandon the challenge; my best Valarin effort was about 14 syllables. So instead:

Valarin: Amanaišalmâchan, 'Unmarred Law'. Both health and song (the Valarin form of literature) are symptoms of the unmarred world.

Black Speech: Wait, I accept the challenge again! Durbaturuk means 'to rule the Orcs'; keeping them alive and telling them what to do sounds like a good route to that!

For bonus points: except for Sindarin, all of these can also be using 'doctor' to mean 'professor'. ^_^

To answer your question, we have to ask: what is a swear word, anyway? Tolkien invented multiple words relating to sexual intercourse, which could easily be translated by English swear words - but given the way he presented elves as thinking about the subject, they definitely wouldn't be swearing in the original.

If instead we look at native curse words, Quenya actually provides a fair few insults. Nauco is a word for 'Dwarf' that means 'stunted one', and was very offensive; it's hard to imagine mortal Men would take kindly to being called Engwar ('The Sickly Ones') or Fírimar ('Those Apt to Die'). You'd probably offend just about anyone by using words like úvanima (hideous) or úvanima (monster) at them.

Sindarin has cognates to a some of these, being a related language. Naug is the same word as nauco, Firion and Firieth are the male and female forms of the word for 'one who dies, mortal'. Uvanima reappears as Urug, (monster), and there are delightful words like úvelui, meaning 'unloveable'.

Perhaps most delightfully, Sindarin has a word that could pretty much translate as 'swear word': úbedui is translated as 'not fit to say, unspeakable'. It's an adjective, so you'd need to say peth/pith úbedui, 'word/s unspeakable'.

The other Tolkienian languages are pretty fragmentary. Adunaic has a word dolgu which is noted as meaning night (evil) as opposed to lômi, night (neutral). Valarin has the word dušamanûðân, 'marred', which refers to the presence of evil in the world - I imagine they'd use it as a general-purpose comment on anything bad. And the Black Speech...

... is stuffed with swearing, because c'mon, it's Orcish. You can call someone a fool (glob), you can call them dungfilth (pushdug), you can use either skai of sha as an unglossed 'interjection of contempt' (possibly the only actual swear-words in Tolkien). All of these words come from the gloriously untranslated rant that pops up in the middle of The Two Towers: "Uglúk u bagronk sha pushdug Saruman-glob búbhosh skai!"

(Tolkien, being Tolkien, actually provided two totally contradictory translations of this at different times; Ardalambion accepts the earlier version, but either way it's highly offensive, and skai! remains an untranslated curse either way.)

hS

To what extent is it true that Latin V is pronounced as English W? We watched an episode of Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries last night in which the word 'vincit' was spoken (by a character who ought to know) as 'winkit', which totally isn't how I'd assume it was read. And that reminded me of the time Heather Dale (actually more likely Ben Deschamps) signed a CD with 'si vales valeo', and read it out as 'see Wally's wallyo' (ahem).

So is this a reflection of how the Romans would have spoken it? Is it a later evolution, church or school or something? And if the hard C is original, does that mean 'Caeser' is really 'Kaiser'?

hS, who cares about this due to currently living in Venta, which doesn't sound as good when it's Wenta

Let's try Andris Andris-Minalli which translates fairly accurately as Dawn Morningstar.

Thank you very much for the translation: 'aurora' does get me something in the dictionary, but 'dawn' is a much simpler starting place given, well, my screen name used to be DawnFire and I named my Plort character in Hebrew translation (not to mention Agent Dawn McKenna, whose birth name turned out to be in Hebrew as well).

Here we go: Aurora Morningstar in Hebrew should be...Shakhar Kokhav-HaBoker, שחר כוכב הבוקר. In a less literal translation, since it seems 'morning star' is a searchable phrase--well, that gives 'Kokhav HaShakhar', כוכב השחר or 'Ayelet HaShakhar', אילת השחר as the translation of 'morning star', so...that might actually be problematic, given that's literally something like 'star of dawn'. You can't be 'Dawn Dawn-Star'! It's kind of nice, but sounds silly!

If I go back to 'aurora', I get HaNetz HaKhamah, something like 'the moment of sunrise'. Pleasant, but I think this will end up too long--'HaNetz HaKhamah Kokhav HaShakhar', הנץ החמה כוכב השחר? That's a mouthful, and it sounds kind of nonsensical, like I've put two phrases together at random.

Shakhar Kokhav HaBoker, שחר כוכב הבוקר may actually be the best option. Kokhav HaBoker was given as a less popular option for 'morning star'; might as well go for it, unless you want to drop the first Shakhar (dawn) altogether and just be Morningstar. This one also, pleasantly, looks like a description--'Dawn, the Morning Star'. Shakhar is also in use as a name for both men and women (unlike Ayelet, which is pretty firmly a female name right now. It has a feminine ending, which helps).

~Z

... which is pretty appropriate, considering. Thanks!

As for your good self:

Quenya: Ára Eärendil would be the easy translation, but who wants that guy's name in theirs? There is actually another Quenya name for Venus, which gives us Áratancol - 'Dawn of the Signifier'.

(Of course, if 'Morningstar' means 'Lucifer', you'd be Áramelkórë. But that's really not a name you'd want to say in public.)

Sindarin: A literal translation would be Minuial Aerendil, but that's way too long. I would suggest instead Gil-Vinuial, 'star of the twilight at dawn'. ('Vinuial' is the same word as 'Minuial'; it just mutates.)

Adunaic: Gimli-azûlada is not a dwarf, but is 'the Eastward Star'. Quite why Tolkien decided to use a dwarf's name for 'star' is beyond me.

Valarin: Amanaišalaþâraigas is the 'Unmarred Sun', which is a very religious concept in (some versions of) the Legendarium. As a metaphor for dawn, I think it fits.

Black Speech: Skai! Sun, stars, dawn - it's all just fire, so Ghâshulûk, 'burn them all' you shall be.

hS

Interestingly your name in High Valyrian has the 'dawn' and 'morning' elements reversed: Ñāqesonqēlo is literally 'morning of the dawn-star'. Onqēlos (lit. 'dawn-star') is given as the HV version of 'Morning Star' so I used the alternate word Ñāqes for 'morning'.

Elcalion

Stand by for some rough Hebrew translations, and possibly a couple in Yiddish if I really get into it...

~Z

I'm nice and easy, at least: Stofea-Crubint, "snow-fire".

Your name would translate as Nivisīgnis 'fire of snow'. I did try to find 'blaze', 'wildfire' or something similar, but it seems that there's no specific translation for those.

Impressively quick--Snowblaze is Sheleg Lohet, שלג לוהט--'Blazing Snow! That sounds awesome. Something about the word 'lohet', I think--it's one of those words that makes me happy to hear, possibly because it's kind of fun to say and brings to mind poetry and campfires and so on.

~Z

You are Perzysōno, Fire of the Snow!

... y'know, provided you use a language that has words for things like 'snow'.

Quenya: Ruinilossë, literally 'blaze-snow'.

Sindarin: Naurlos, again, 'fire-snow'.

Adunaic: Has no word for 'snow' or 'fire'; but sea-foam is similar in appearance to snow, and there is a word for 'kindler', so I'll go Rothnitîr, 'foam-kindler'.

Valarin: Has a word for fire, for some reason. Ice, in Middle-earth, is a symptom of the Marring, so I'll go with Ulludušamanûðânuruš, 'marred-water-fire'. Possibly a bit long even for Valarin!

Black Speech: It's hot in Mordor. Snow melts. You are Ghâshronk, the fire-pool. :)

... and because you're another temperature name, you too can have an Isaac Newton Secret Language name: Oytorf-Owtorf, or 'very cold thing-very hot thing'. ^_^

hS

considering that my language is made up of nothing but nouns. I also don't have a word for "singing" yet, but I suppose it could be kind of similar to a ritual chant, which would mean magic, Magnis.

I could try pluralising Elcran "person" (although I haven't yet worked out if plurals are allowed.)

So the best I've got is Elcrans-Magnis

'We sing' would be Canimus, 'let us sing' would be Canāmus and 'we are singing' would be Sumus Canentibus. One of these is not like the others.

Also, reversing the word order, but omitting the accentuation that would make "singen wir?" a question, turns it into a colloquial suggestion (short for "lasst uns singen").

So that’s how I read your name: "Let’s sing".

HG

Quenya: Líralvë is 'We are singing', Lirilwë is 'We sing'. The latter seems slightly more euphonious to me, but it's a coin toss.

Sindarin: Linnam is a direct cognate to both of the above (we only know one Sindarin present tense). Mercy be, a Sindarin name that doesn't involve consonant mutations!

(It was lovely to be able to directly translate your name with no weird word use. Now onto the tricky ones.)

Adunaic: Nênbêthin, which I believe to mean 'we [female] are speaking'. 'Nên' is the first person plural pronoun; 'bith' is 'speak', which becomes 'bêthi' in the present continuative. '-in' is the feminine name ending.

(Okay, that one wasn't too bad.)

Valarin: Šebethaþar means 'Festival air'. In English you can occasionally use 'air' to mean 'song', but also, the air above a Valarin festival would definitely be filled with song.

Black Speech: Krimpatum is 'bindingness'. As we all know, all songs in Mordor are marching songs, intended to bind their singers together. Hence... (Literally it's 'to bind-ness'.)

hS

"We are singing" is best translated by the present indicative, which would make you Vāedi. Or for the sense of "we sing" regardless of when it occurs we could use the aorist which would make you Vāediti. I think that sounds better, plus languages having an aorist are so rare that I feel the need to use it when possible. Elcalion, grammatical

It would probably be along the lines of "Iximas" although I'm not completely sure.

Iximaz becomes איקסימז--only the pronunciation changes (to eeks-see-mahz). A bit like Xes and Os--'iks-igul'. I guess the first part translates to X, and if I search the rest...X, the musical note si, and either the abbreviation for an even number or the river Meuse? Fittingly nonsensical.

Ixīmas seems to be the closest you can get phonologically in Latin; the meaning is apparently 'man of a hen harrier', which seems rather odd. If, on the other hand, I translate 'nonsense', you would be Nonsīgnificātiō, 'meaningless'.

High Valyrian appears not to have a word for nonsense per se, but I have coined a name for you: Dosylviosa, literally 'not-using-wisdom' or 'not-by-wisdom' which is as close to 'nonsense' as I could get.

Alternatively, if Iximaz were a native HV word, the closest match in the phonology would be Issimassi.

Elcalion, coining phrases

Looks like I literally translated it as 'nothing': Q. Únyárë, 'No Tale', S. Aringath 'Without Notions', A. Bawâbêth, 'the Wind-Speaker', V. Amanaišalšebeth, 'the Unmarred Air', B. Ashgûl, 'that One Wraith'.

Which is... a bit of a cop-out, isn't it? Perhaps instead, we could do what the Elves did when Arômêz showed up, and transliterate the meaningless name (in that case into Oromë and Araw). So:

Quenya likes to just drop terminal Zs from adopted name, and change the preceding vowel into an E (Manwe gets this treatment), which takes us to 'Iximë'. X is technically allowed as a letter in Q., but it just doesn't look right; I think it would be softened to Issimë. That's a decent Quenya word, meaning something like 'We know ourselves'.

Sindarin lacks both X and Z. The Araw example suggests they would initially cut back to 'Ixi', and then... well, given that 'enni' is a word, I imagine you end up as Issi. Which looks like it might be an archaic plural of the third-person pronoun (which is gender-neutral).

Adunaic loves its Zs, but lacks X, so we're going straight for 'Izimaz'. It doesn't look like Z ends very many words, so they'd probably slap an ending on it; that gives Izimazin/Izimazun (feminine/masculine, because of course the Numenoreans have a gendered language. Actually per Tolkien it's more accurately a sexed language - har, har - which only uses non-neutral genders for things which are or belong to fe/male beings.) No known meaning, though it could be folk-etymologically-derived from izrê+mâ+in/un, 'sweetheart+with+[f/m]'.

Valarin thinks your name is waaaay too short. Q. 'axar' comes from V. 'anaškad', and 'axan' from 'akašân', so we're looking at a word starting 'Iniški' or 'Ikiši'. 'Maz' could be adopted directly as 'mâz', giving us... Iniškimâz? No known meaning, but the ending suggests one of the Valar; you get to hand out with Elcalion, who also got a Vala name.

Black Speech really loves medial consonant clusters. I want to suggest 'Ixmaz', but there's no attested X. Iskmaz, perhaps? Pretty obviously it has no meaning, though if you wanted to be Ishinazg you'd be 'In the Ring'.

The best I have is Parsine-Elcran "chaotic (random) person"

Kheshbon Ploni Randomali, חשבון פלוני רנדומלי? Literally, 'the account of an unknown, random person'? This does make for a male-coded name, though--you could also go for Kheshbon Ben Adam Randomali, חשבון בן אדם רנדומלי, or Kheshbon Ben Enosh Randomali, חשבון בן אנוש רנדומלי 'the account of a random human being'? Technically the terms 'ben enosh' and 'ben adam' are masculine, but they're also understood to be general terms for 'human being'. What can I say--Hebrew is a bi-gendered language. I think there are workarounds being thought up here and there, and there are a number of words which can be either masculine or feminine, ('wind' is one of them, though it mostly takes the feminine), but overall, it's one or the other.

~Z

I think the closest I can get is persōna, 'mask, character', which gives Cuiusdam Fortuītī Hominis Persōna 'the character of some random person'.

Quenya: Quenúhandi Epessë, or 'Person-nonunderstood [Adopted] name'. 'Non-understood' (literally 'un-knowledge' works either for random meaning 'acts randomly', or meaning 'picked at random'.

Sindarin: Athaldaith, 'The Mark of the Stranger'. 'Some random person' is taken to mean 'someone I don't know', a stranger or foreigner. Taith means a mark, sign, or symbol.

Adunaic: Bâsaphudi-Rûkh, 'Non-understood Shout' is a bit long for an Adunaic name; I'd guess it would be a name given to a foreigner. 'Shout' is the best I can do for 'Account', and here implies that the Numenoreans don't speak your language, so (rather offensively) just describe it as nonsense yelling.

Valarin: Ayanûzaphelûn, 'Dwelling of an Ainu'. Ainu (demigod, angel) is literally the only person word in the Valarin corpus, so you get to be The House of Some Random Angel.

Black Speech: Snaga-ishi, or 'A slave here'. If you're a random person in Mordor, nobody cares about you; you're just another slave'. One who's here, at the moment.

These always get a bit grim towards the end...

'Account' is stretching the bounds of HV vocab, but in Essos you would be Kelinītsys, 'the random one' (possibly also the native High Valyrian word for gambler)
