A third daughter of Finwë who appeared in some texts in the 1950s (MR/207, 238), but did not appear in later texts and may have rejected (PM/359). In The Shibboleth of Fëanor from the late 1960s, Finwë had only two daughters, Findis and Írimë. The name Faniel ends with the common feminine suffix -iel, but the meaning of the initial element is unclear. This name had the same form in Sindarin (PM/262 footnote).
