S. Húrinien pn. “Children of Húrin”

S. Húrinien, pn. “Children of Húrin”

Another name for the tale Narn i Chîn Húrin appearing in an introduction to the tale of Túrin that was not included in the published version of The Silmarillion (WJ/311). The initial element is clearly Húrin, but the meaning of the final element is unclear.

Conceptual Development: This name also appeared in Silmarillion drafts from the 1930s, where it was preceded by the definite article and underwent nasal-mutation, as N. iChúrinien (LR/317).
