X ... is quite impossible. I don't know about you, but I can't think of a name with X. So, let us skip it.

By the life of me, I can't think of a Z. Ideas, anyone?
If not, would someone like to start again with A? :) Or shall we do it backwards this time?

I was about to say Zharkû (the orkish name for Saruman) -- but then I checked and found that the name is Sharkû. Sooo, let us do backwards, yes! :D But we can't repeat names!.

Re: Tolkien's ABC
Just for the records, and since apparently you gave up:

Yávien:
Daughter of Nolondil the younger son of Vardamir, eldest son of Elros (so, great-granddaughter of Elros).

Zimrahin:
Malach’s wife, mother of Adanel and great-grandmother of Hador Lórindol and Emeldir (Beren’s mother).

Zimrahil:
Adûnaic name of Míriel, daughter of Tar-Palantir. She took the name Ar-Zimraphel and her cousin and husband Pharazôn took the title of Ar-Pharazôn when they became Queen and King of Númenor.

Zimrathôn:
The son of Ar-Adûnakhôr, who was the first King of Númenor to oppose the Valar. The son did the same and when he became King he took his name in Adûnaic (Ar- Zimrathôn) instead Quenya (Tar-Hostamir).

Cai, board's lurker

EDITED:

I thought it would be nice to post for once...:

V = Valandil
Son of Silmarien and the first Lord of Andúnië.
Also,
The youngest of Isildur's Sons and his heir since his brothers were slain with their father.

Re: Tolkien's ABC
Hmm... I can’t remember a name starting with ‘Q’, only Quickbeam. In fact I don’t think 'Q' is used in Quenya to build names (but titles) and less in sindarin since the letter doesn’t exist in that tongue. All I can think –and it is a title, not a name- is “Qalmë-Tàri” (lit. Mistress of Death), one of Nienna’s titles, and it's very old stuff (BoLT I).

No letter, Cai, since you were around? ;(
