N. Caleledh pn. “*Light Elf”

N. Caleledh, pn. “*Light Elf”

Noldorin form that appeared in a marginal note in The Etymologies from the 1930s alongside a variant Celion and an unclear form Celelidh, possibly its plural (EtyAC/KAL). It appears to be a singular Noldorin equivalent to ᴹQ. Kalaqendi “*Light Elves”, a combination of ᴹ√KAL “shine” and Eledh “Elf”.
