Q. Tyeleptalëa f. “Silver-footed”
A Quenya form of Celebrindal appearing notes from the 1968 (NM/349), a combination of (archaic) †tyelpë “silver” and an adjectival form of tál “foot”.
Conceptual Development: The earliest Qenya form of the name was ᴱQ. Taltelepta, appearing in name lists from the 1910s (LT2/216), in one list alongside the variant ᴱQ. Telpetalwi (PE13/104). In The Etymologies of the 1930s, the Quenya name was given as ᴹQ. Taltyelemna (replacing rejected ᴹQ. Taltelepsa), a compound of tál “foot” and telemna “*silver (adjective)” (Ety/KYELEP). According to Carl Hostetter and Patrick Wynne, this name was actually written with the proper Quenya initial consonant ty- for “silver”, as opposed to Telerin t- (EtyAC/KYELEP).
