Eldamo : Noldorin : Orchelanath

N. Orchelanath pn.

N. Orchelanath, pn.

A name of unclear function appearing in linguistic notes from the 1930s along with variants and Orchallamath and Orchalammoth (EtyAC/KHAL², MBAT(H); PE22/41). It might be a combination of orchal “tall” and amath “shield”, but the second element was rejected.
