In the early [[Second Age]], [[Sauron]] came to the [[Noldor]] in disguise, taking various different aliases in his efforts to seduce them. The best known of these was probably [[Annatar]], 'Lord of Gifts', but it seems that he took at least two other names as well. One of these was Aulendil, meaning approximately 'devotee of [[Aulë]]'. [[Aulë]] was the [[Valar|Vala]] with special knowledge of making and invention, and was held in particular reverence by the [[Noldor]] - hence, presumably, [[Sauron]]'s choice of the name. There was a special irony in the choice, too, because in the far distant past, [[Sauron]] actually had belonged to the people of [[Aulë]], until he was corrupted into the service of [[Melkor]].
'''Aulendil''' ([[Quenya|Q]], pron. {{IPA|[a͡ʊˈlendil]}}) can refer to:
* The [[Aulendur|Aulendili]], the pupils of [[Aulë]].
* [[Aulendil (son of Vardamir)|Aulendil]] (born {{SA|213}}), a son of [[Vardamir|Vardamir Nólimon]].
* [[Aulendil (Sauron)|Aulendil]], a disguise used by [[Sauron]] in the mid-[[Second Age]].
