I just wanted to ask if someone knows if you can translate your name into elvish? If you do can you please tell me how to write Sandra? I would be very thankful Smile Smilie

Lots of love from Sandra from Sweden

That's not quite true...

http://www.elvish.org/elm/names.html says that your name in Quenya is:
"SANDRA (f.) - from ALEXANDRA (q.v), so Varne"

Or do you mean how it is written with Tengwars?

Hello Amidala. Welcome to our happy family. Happy Elf Smilie

I like Amidala better than Varne, as it sounds more feminine, to my tin ear anyway, but suit yourself to whatever suits your fancy.

Share and enjoy.
