  • Il nome "Elwing" ha due diverse etimologie: La prima lo indica come un nome composito Sindarin derivante dalle parole êl ("stella") e wing ("spruzzo") col significato di "spruzzo di stelle". Il nome le venne dato dal padre Dior poiché: "Era nata in una notte stellata in cui la luce degli astri riscintillava negli spruzzi della cascata di Lanthir Lamath accanto alla casa di suo padre." —op. cit., pp. 295
  • The daughter of Dior and Nimloth, Elwing the White (S."Star-foam") escaped during the attack by the sons of Feanor on Menegroth (unlike her brothers Elured and Elurin who were lost). She departed with the Nauglamir and its Silmaril, finding refuge with the Elves who dwelt by the mouths of the river Sirion. There she married Earendil and bore him two sons: Elrond and Elros.

Il nome le venne dato dal padre Dior poiché: "Era nata in una notte stellata in cui la luce degli astri riscintillava negli spruzzi della cascata di Lanthir Lamath accanto alla casa di suo padre." —op. cit., pp. 295 La seconda etimologia si rifà ad "Ailwing", grafia più antica di "Elwing", e derivante da ailion ("lago") e gwing ("schiuma") col significato di "schiuma di lago", usato come sinonimo per "ninfea dal fiore bianco".

Elwing was the first to make the choice of the Halfelven; she remained of the Firstborn. She could speak with birds and was considered their patron, especially the birds of the Sea.
