Eowyn fans out there ... question for you ...
Did Eowyn's sword have a name? Please share? I don't care if the name comes from the books or the movie.
My daughter and son both got plastic swords for their bday last week. My son named his sword "Sting" ... and my daughter insisted to name her sword like Eowyn's ... I think she was dissapointed that her mommy didn't know that specific fact about LotR  .

I don't recall Eowyn's sword having a name, but Theoden's is "Herugrim"--would that work? She could always figure Eowyn inherited Theoden's sword after he died (and maybe it's best not to tell her that Eowyn gives up the sword after the war).

Damn straight!
You should ask Hathy. She's the resident Eowyn obsessive around here. *cough*cardboard cut-out*cough*

I'll see if I can get a hold of her ...
... I kept trying to convince my daughter to name her sword like movie-Arwen's ... but she wouldn't. "Eowyn is blonde like me" she said  !
If everything else fails ... I'll tell her the name is "Herugrim" ... that is a great idea ... and yes, I'll "forget" to mention that Eowyn called it quits after killing the Witch-King !

Aww. ^_^ I remember I thought Eowyn was the coolest woman alove when I was eight years old. Your daughter has good taste. (Also, I refuse to believe that she would never have fought again; she just lost some of the "I may as well die in battle 'cause I'm good for nothing else" mentality that she had before.)

Oooh! Eowyn! (Panneth, shush. Miranda is doing very well in scaring the neighbours and has the added bonus of looking damn fine as she does it!)
Eowyn's sword has no name. It's never really defined; which is odd, but there we are. I go with the Herugrim suggestion.
Oh, and your daughter sounds absolutely adorable!

Thanks Hathor!
I told my girl "Herugrim" and she's practicing on pronunciation, so I'm glad that you have reiterated that Eowyn's sword has no name ... I wouldn't want to start all over again !
I'll have in mind you're the Eowyn specialist next time I have an Eowyn question !
I do remember Panneth thinking about putting Aragorn and Legolas on either side of her front door and Hobbits as lawn decorations ... I just thought you might want to know that tiny bit of trivia ...  ...

Stop giving away all my secrets!
And for the record, Aragorn and Legolas were going to go in the living room, but if you've seen the size of our house in Manchester you'd understand why that plan failed! And the rain would destroy the garden hobbits too

You could always plastify them !
Is "plastify" a word  ?

| I think the word you are looking for is Laminate! But Plastify works well! |
