The word Amdir, without the long í, is recorded as a word for "Hope", or "looking up", in Sindarin. The King of Lórien is called Malgalad in one text, detailing the fate of the Sindarin kings in the Battle of Dagorlad. Christopher Tolkien argues that, since they are contemporaries and both described as Kings that died in the Battle of Dagorlad, they are likely the same. It is unclear however which form was abandoned. Malgalad likely means "Gold-shine", from malt, "gold (the metal)" and galad, "light, radiance, glittering, reflection (from jewels, glass or polished metal, or water)" or "Golden-tree", from the outdated spelling of galadh.
