Q. Ilthániel f. “*Starkindler”
A rejected cognate of S. Gilthoniel (PE17/23). It is derived from a combination of ✶gillē “silver glint, star”, the root √THAN “kindle” and the feminine suffix -iel, but Tolkien revised its initial element to ✶ñgillē (> Q. nillë¹), rendering this name invalid. Elsewhere, the usual Quenya equivalent of S. Gilthoniel is given as Q. Tintallë.
