Elves of the Light
From Tolkien Gateway
Those Elves known as the Calaquendi, who had looked on the light of the Two Trees of Valinor before their Darkening. These were the Vanyar, the Noldor and that part of the Teleri that had travelled West from Middle-earth. Elu Thingol was also considered an Elf of the Light; though he never completed the Great Journey, he had travelled to Valinor and back before the Eldar set out from Cuiviénen.
