- vanimelda
- adj., said to be the highest word of praise for beauty, with two interpretations that were apparently considered equally valid and simultaneously true: beautiful and beloved vanima + melda, with haplology, i.e. movingly lovely, but also elven-fair fair as an Elf vanima + elda. The word was also used as the second name of Arwen. PE17:56, Second Edition LotR1:II ch. 16.
