» Michael_Martinez - Re: Gildor

In response to message posted by LeftyScaevola:

I don't think a fosterling could or would take the name of an Elven king. Gildor's story seems to have been forgotten or overlooked by Tolkien, and the consequence of that has been much puzzlemen and discussion among the readership.

An adoption is, however, something I have never considered before. But I'm not aware of any explicit adoptions among the Eldar. Their laws and views of kinship seem to have been rather extended.
