Ilion was the father of Ingwë, who would later become the King of the Vanyar. He was one of the Minyar, a direct descendant of Imin and Iminyë from eldest son to eldest son, belonging to the fourth generation of Elves (i.e. a great-grandson of Imin).[1]
It is unknown if he joined the Great March or remained in Cuiviénen, where he was born; but as the Minyar/Vanyar were described as most eager to undertake the journey, it is likely he followed his son along with his people.
Etymology[edit | edit source]
The name Ilion seems to be in Quenya, and may mean "all-son", from the root IL ("all") + -ion (masculine patronymic).[2]
