HEY! OFF-TOPIC!!! We're talking about Merry and Estella's marraige here, not hobbit sexual slavery.
If no one has anything more to offer on that subject, let's consider this topic closed.
Thanks to all who added to our knowledge about 'Stella and Merry!

Aha! Here is the thread I've been looking for... I too am a PHF and I love all stories on Merry/Estella and Pippin/Diamond. And I have indeed been wondering when Merry married Estella... since in my English copy of LOTR Estella isn't mentioned at all (I had to write her into the Brandybuck & Took geneology table myself! He he). So there is no marriage date for them? Too bad the big T isn't around anymore to ask him *sniff*
But otherwise, this thread answered almost all of my questions! 
PS: I'm new here... and mostly just lurking around. Great site! |

welcome welcome *wink* glad you came by:) Though you now know how really crazy we all are:)
Yup, Merry and Estella's marriage is officially void of any details, so have fun with your imagination (I did with mine:))))

For some reason, that statement truly frightens me.  Just kidding, SilverMoon - I have an abundant appreciation for my fellow pervs, regardless of what Middle-earth race they are pervvy for.
And hello, Eyborg! Welcome to the madness that is OSA.

You wish!
Anyway, thanks for the welcome all! I'm really enjoying reading the stories here. I do a bit of writing myself, but only in my own language so far... 
BTW speaking of Estella... isn't that a Spanish name? (Actually many hobbits do have Spanish-sounding names... dunno why, but it's still cute!) |

Well, if I remember accurately, hobbits from the great famillies, Tooks in particular, and apparently the Bolgers as well, were said to have 'grand' sounding first names, which it seems Tolkien mostly drew from frankish, gothic type sources. Estella's name certainly doesn't quite seem to fit the mold in that sense. It is rather spanish sounding, with that lovely 'l' sound and 'a' at the end:) And it sounds a lot like 'estrella' which I think means star (I may be mixed up here though).
Just where and why we'll never know....

I know "stella" is Latin for "star", and I think "estella" is the Spanish form (although I don't really know that much Spanish, just a few words).
Hmmm... looks like Merry and Aragorn have something in common here. They both marry women with star-names!
Off-topic: I love all the Took names... many of them are indeed names of some old medieval kings/queens and knights. Also, I've always found the Brandybuck names kind of cool...
Okay, I'm not gonna go any further off topic... |
