Radaghast's REAL name???

Úlairi · Feb 21, 2002

What was Radaghast's real name. I can remember Gandalf's/Mithrandir's was Olorin, Saruman's was Curunir. But I cannot remember it saying anywhere what Radaghast's real name was??? Any help???

A Quenya name for him was Aiwendil, & Saruman's Q. name was Curumo rather.

Radagast aka Aiwendil:

'Bird-lover', the name in Valinor of the Wizard who became known as Radagast in Middle-earth.

That's 'Radagast', leave out the 'h'

Yup, and his name Radagast is said in UT to mean 'tender of beasts' in 'Númenórean'.

Which reference is footnoted:

"In a very late note on the names of the Istari Radagast is said to be a name deriving from the Men of the Vales of Anduin 'not now clearly interpretable.'"
