Is the name an original one or was it used before?

Not used on any other car before or since (as far as I know)...

Paul Jaray · March 22, 2013, 03:33:46 PM

Is it named after something (or someone?)

Quiller · March 23, 2013, 07:53:17 AM

I thought it was an invented name, but I did a search online for it and the name appears in the works of JRR Tolkein, no less...

Legolas?

woodinsight · March 23, 2013, 10:30:18 AM

Sindar?

Quiller · March 23, 2013, 12:38:39 PM

Neither Legolas nor Sindar...

woodinsight · March 23, 2013, 12:58:35 PM

Perhaps it's called the Hobbit?

Wendax · March 23, 2013, 01:09:42 PM

The way it looks Gollum would be more appropriate.

Mordor?

Quiller · March 24, 2013, 06:55:43 PM

Just to warn you, it's quite a obscure Tolkein reference

woodinsight · March 25, 2013, 05:00:18 AM

Shadowfax?

Is the Tolkein reference, the name of a place?

Quiller · March 27, 2013, 07:17:08 AM

It's the name of a not-particularly-well-known female character in The Silmarillion...

Wendax · March 27, 2013, 07:25:07 AM

Elwing?

Paul Jaray · March 27, 2013, 07:43:43 AM

Haleth?

Quiller · March 27, 2013, 07:45:27 AM

Neither of those...

Wendax · March 27, 2013, 08:32:37 AM

Nienna?

dzima1985 · March 27, 2013, 08:35:39 AM

Shelob?

Paul Jaray · March 27, 2013, 08:45:21 AM

Lalaith?

Quiller · March 27, 2013, 09:48:03 AM

Shelob would be a good name for the spider version.
But alas, none of those names matches...

Paul Jaray · March 27, 2013, 09:49:19 AM

Rìan?

Wendax · March 27, 2013, 10:03:00 AM

It must be Varda, because "she is said to be too beautiful for words".

Quiller · March 29, 2013, 07:06:41 PM

Neither of those...

woodinsight · March 30, 2013, 01:24:29 AM

Luthien?

Paul Jaray · March 30, 2013, 05:26:45 AM

Melian?
