my family.

The participants from the left Enkku Kilisointu, Mainio Muorinilo,
Simppu Kilikello and P�hki Mietelaakso.
Those are our elf-names.
You can generate one for yourself here. Type first your first name,

It is Finnish, but you must remember that J.R.R.Tolkien designed
Quenya, the language of the Elves in particular from "phonaesthetic"

phonologically based on Latin, with ingredients from Finnish, Welsh,
English, and Greek. He had read our national epic Kalevala in Finnish.
