Calenardhon
Green Province
Calenardhon is Sindarin, meaning "Green Province" or "the (great) green region" (calen "green" + ardhon "province, great region").
The hypothetical Old Sindarin would likely be *Kalinardondo.
Earlier names used by Tolkien for this region were Elenarda > Kalen(arda) > Kalinarda > Calenardan > Calenardon.
