Amrod

Amrod and Amras, sons of Fëanor by Jenny Dolfen.

Amrod (rod = power) (Years of the Trees – First Age 575), with his twin brother Amras, was the youngest of the seven Sons of Fëanor. He dwelt in the wide plains of East Beleriand and was known as a great hunter. He died during the attack made by the Sons of Fëanor on the Havens of Sirion.

Etymology

Amrod's father-name was Pityafinwë, or "Little Finwë", as he was the youngest of the House of Finwë. His mother-name was Ambarussa ("top-russet", referring to his hair). His twin Amras shared the same mother-name. The name Amrod is the Sindarin version of the short form of Pityafinwë, Pityo.
