Aegnor
Aegnor (Years of the Trees – First Age 455) was an Elf, a son of Finarfin and a Lord of the Noldor. As recounted in The Shibboleth of Fëanor, he was terrible in battle, seemingly having a fire in his eyes, and his golden hair was stiff and straight.
Aegnor was the elder brother of Galadriel and the younger brother of Finrod Felagund and Angrod. Together with Angrod he held the highlands of Dorthonion against Morgoth. Aegnor and Angrod were both slain in the Dagor Bragollach ("Battle of Sudden Flame").
Aegnor never married. He was in love with the Bëorian woman Andreth, but because of the war did not make his intentions towards her clear, and was killed soon after.
Etymology
Aegnor's mother-name was Aicanáro, meaning "Sharp-flame" in Quenya, given in regards to his character. Aegnor is the Sindarin version of his mother-name.
