ᴱQ. Uole Kúvion pn. “Man in the Moon, Moonking”
Name of the Man in the Moon in the earliest Lost Tales (LT1/193), his second name is clearly related to kú “crescent moon”, as suggested by Christopher Tolkien (LT1A/Uolë Kúvion), but the meaning of his first name is unclear. In the Gnomish Lexicon his first name was instead Óle (GL/27, GL/72).
