Hey, if someone could give me the names of all the known Istari that would be great. :) (please list all possible names if an Istari has more than one name)

Above the thread is a green bar. Search function = 3rd from right. Choose "Advanced Search," "Search by Keyword," Keyword = Istari, use the drop down menu to change "Search Entire Posts" to "Search Titles Only," let us know, afterwards, if there's anything else about the Istari you need to know.

I can get you started: Gandalf, Saruman, Radagast, Blue 1, Blue 2.
That's all of them in one language. I'm sure someone around here will know their Elvish and Dwarvish names.

Blue 1 and Blue 2 were called Allatar and Pallando. However there are alternative names that Tolkien has devised for them in a later work - I don't remember them right away.

Welcome here, DPR! :)

Thanks. I have to apologize, I think. I referred to you as "he" several times in the past on that other site, I think. My bad. :confused:

No problem! :) Yes I am a she-nazgul.:D

And, of course, Gandalf is the Maia Olórin...

EDIT: And I, of course, am a She-Son of Fëanor.

Hmm. That doesn't work as well.

It doesn't, Curu!

Does that make me a She-Son of Finarfin? ;)

On-topic, just a couple more names for the collection:

Radagast was known as Aiwendil in Quenya. Saruman was Curumo.

Alatar and Pallando were also called Morinehtar (Darkness-slayer) and Rómestámo (East-helper)
