Names for Dwarves of the Blue Mountains

Names for Dwarves of the Blue Mountains

Post by Otaku-sempai » Sun Mar 06, 2016 10:56 am

I've derived a list of names from Norse mythology that could be used for Dwarves of the Blue Mountains. This is to try to distinguish them a bit from the Dwarves of Erebor. Some were originally the names of Norse giants, deities, etc.; and I've Anglicized some of them a bit.

Male: Alvaldi; Alviss; Andvari; Baugi; Billingir; Brokk; Brokkir; Draupnir; Egil; Eitri; Fáfnir; Fjalar; Fraenir; Galar; Gangir; Gilling; Gullinbursti; Gungnir; Hreidmar; Idi; Ivaldi; Járnglófar; Kvasir; Litr; Mótsognir; Njord; Ölvaldi; Ottar; Regin; Reidmar; Sindri; Suttungir; Thiazi; Ullur; Wuldor

Female: Gunnlod; Idun; Iduna; Ithun; Ithuna; Lofnheidur; Lyngheidur; Ostara; Skadi
