S. Glórindol, m. “Goldenhead”

Descriptor of Hador, usually appearing in its lenited form Lórindol after his name and translated “Goldenhead” (S/147, WJ/234). This name is a combination of an adjectival form of glaur “gold [color]” with dol(l) “head” (SA/dol, laurë).

Conceptual Development: In Silmarillion revisions from the 1950s-60s, the first appearance of this name was Glorindol with a short o (WJ/228), and in one place his name was revised to Glorindal with an a (WJ/226).
