Etymology

Hareth also appears in Tûr Haretha, the "Ladybarrow", so the name probably means "Lady" in the Haladin tongue.[3]

Other Versions of the Legendarium

Halmir's second daughter, Hiril, was a later addition to the House of Haleth family tree. Before she was introduced Hareth's name was "Hiriel".[4]
