Gilmith was the daughter of Imrazôr, a man of Númenórean descent, and Mithrellas, a Silvan Elf-maiden who accompanied Nimrodel before getting lost. Imrazôr took Mithrellas in. They married and had two children, Gilmith and Galador. Mithrellas later ran away and was never seen again. Galador would later become the first Prince of Dol Amroth.[1][2]
Etymology[edit | edit source]
Gilmith is probably a Sindarin name. Its meaning and components are not glossed, but it perhaps means "Grey Star" and is a compound of gil ("star") and mith ("grey").[3]
