húrinien

proper name. Children of Húrin

Another name for the tale Narn i Chîn Húrin appearing in an introduction to the tale of Túrin that was not included in the published version of The Silmarillion (WJ/311). The initial element is clearly Húrin. Lokyt and Vyacheslav Stepanov suggested its second element might be a Noldorin-style plural of the patronymic suffix -ion. In Noldorin of the 1930s and 40s, an o became an e in the final syllables of plurals rather than y as it did in Sindarin; compare Noldorin plural ered to Sindarin eryd for orod “mountain”.

Conceptual Development: This name also appeared in Silmarillion drafts from the 1930s, where it was preceded by the definite article and underwent nasal-mutation, as N. iChúrinien (LR/317).
