@ theplasticpoet...it's my elvish name..don't know if it's a play on Niniel though..gets me thinking now!The elven roots could be the same. I'll research n let you know!

@ Adi...glad you liked it :)

i speak elvish :D which is why i asked you if it was wordplay on the original name

nienor niniel is a character from silmarillion.

nienor means mourning
niniel means tear-maiden

nioniel isn't an elvish word, but nion (noldorin) or ninui (sindarin) mean 'time of sorrow' and monsoon season respectively.

the roots are: nin for tear and urui for month.

so nioniel means something like "maiden of the days of sorrow"

Nioniel said...

Yeah, Nioniel is a sort of modified vesrion. I think it roots from Niniel though. The "maiden of the days of sorrow" bit i remember.

And yeah i just used some silly "elven name generator" a year or two ago, and the name's been there eversince!

I liked the name, I love it for the meaning now! xD

Drat! this calls for deeper research ;)

Thanks for the insight though :)
Appreciate that.
