Yeah, his new name translates as 'Cave-dweller' rather than 'Cave-prince', so it's just a drop in status :) I'm going to see how unnatural it seems to have him actually call her by their surname, and maybe have another nickname if it dosn't work.
Heh. You're not the only one. I think I will have to write a sequel.
Throwing myself on the mercy of the PGs... :)

The story I intend to kill:
A Dying Light
It’s an action/adventure with a fair amount of gratuitous violence, a distinct lack of respect for the potential severity of head injuries, a random dark fortress somewhere in the region of Rohan among other sundry offences to canon, and several scenes that make me wail “Clinical shock/the healing process/dehydration does not work that way!” But it's not really horrifying enough for me to send it straight to DAVD.
Writing sample(s):
Darkness and Death
My serious Silmarillion-based story, very OC-heavy, set during the kinslaying of Alqualonde. It's not finished and some of the early chapters are very old, but the last chapter was only just posted.
Gifts and Bargains
A more light-hearted LotR one-shot starring Glorfindel and Erestor
I see you resolved the name thing with Felaben. At first glance it seems odd that he would call his sibling by their last name, but on closer inspection it works well enough, I think--and who can blame her for not wanting to go by her given name? All in all, you seem to know what you're doing.
I want to know what happens next in "Gifts and Bargains." {; p
