N. Hadhafang pn. “Throng-cleaver”
Noldorin name for ᴹQ. Sangahyando appearing in The Etymologies from the 1930s, as combination of hâdh “*cleaver” and thang “throng” (Ety/SYAD, STAG). It was dissimilated from the older form †Hadhathang; Tolkien also listed a variant dissimilation havathang (Ety/STAG).
Conceptual Development: In the Gnomish Lexicon from the 1910s, the Gnomish equivalent of ᴱQ. Sangahyando was given as G. Hanthang, G. Sangair and (rejected) Thangairo[s?], with the last letter unreadable in the third variant (GL/48, 67, 72).
