'''Valandil''' means "Devoted to the [[Valar]]" in [[Quenya]] (from ''-[[ndil]]'', "friend, lover, devoted to") and may refer to:


Valandil's mother was [[Silmarien]], the eldest child of [[Tar-Elendil]], the fourth [[King of Númenor]]. His father was [[Elatan]] of [[Andúnië]].
* [[Valandil (Lord of Andúnië)|Valandil]] (born {{SA|630}}), the first [[Lords of Andúnië|Lord of Andúnië]].
 
* [[Valandil (King of Arnor)|Valandil]] ({{SA|3430}} - {{TA|249}}), youngest son of [[Isildur]] and third [[Kings of Arnor|King]] of [[Arnor]].

The royal houses of [[Arnor]] and [[Gondor]] derive their origins from his descendant [[Elendil]], the eighteenth and the last Lord of Andúnië.
