golodh (pron. [ˈɡoloð]), plural gelydh ([ˈɡelyð], later [ˈɡelið]) or older gœlydh ([ˈɡølyð]), is the Sindarin word for "one of the wise folk", a Noldo, pl. Noldor.[1]

The plural form Golodhrim (pron. [ɡoˈloðrim]) contains -rim as a collective plural ending,[2] probably the dominant form in Beleriand.
