Eruro?

Eruro Aras... Did you translate that yourself or did you get that out of a "name generator"? Note: Tolkien didn't use "Eru" in names. Men used "Vala", Elves didn't invoke deities in their name at all. -- Ederchil 17:08, 9 February 2008 (EST)

It's a very rough translation of my name I did myself, using this article; Eru- fits much better than Vala- and I'm not claiming to be an Elf, just stealing their language :P --Aule the Smith 03:13, 10 February 2008 (EST)

This is a must-read before translating names. What does the -ro stand for anyway? I can only think of "Joey Deere" -- Ederchil 05:33, 10 February 2008 (EST)

Very close! It's actually "Joey Roe". The -ro is from aro, addition. So, Eruro = Eru-aro = God adds = "The LORD will increase" = Joseph ;) --Aule the Smith 09:53, 10 February 2008 (EST)

"Idea for structure"

I personally vote for bringing "cast" (maybe rename as "Voice cast"?) before "Accuracy". But that's just me. All films need some structure too. -- Ederchil ^{(Talk/Contribs/Edits)} 20:23, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
