S. Meril f. “Rose”
A Sindarin translation of the name of Sam’s daughter “Rose”, presumably of the same meaning, appearing in Tolkien’s unpublished epilogue to The Lord of the Rings and in the King’s Letter (SD/126, 129). The etymology of the name is unclear.
Conceptual Development: In earlier versions of the epilogue the name appeared as N. Beril (SD/117).
