[afro-elf]

What kind of name is Imrahil? Quenya?

What does it mean?

how old was he during LOTR?

[ArwenEvenstar]

Little more description please. maybe if we knew a little more people could answer.

But in my humble opinion, I think it's Quenya. (I'm probally wrong)(I'm also writiing to much so my mom can't look at a site she wants to lookat............................................ ............................):) :D ;) :p :cool: :rolleyes: I'm smart:)

'Imrahil' is actually Sindarin (or atleast it does not belong to Quenya). I don't know what it means. His birth does not appear to be marked in the Tale of Years. He was related I believe to Finduilas daughter of Adrahil of Dol Amroth, wife of Denethor II. I don't remember the nature of the kinship, but for what it's worth she was born in 2950.

isn there any mention of imrahil's father

could finduilas be his sister perhaps?

[Tar-Elenion]

Imrahil is actually Adunaic (i.e. Numenorean), see LotR App. E. No translation is given.
Imrahil was born in TA 2955 and lived 99 years.

[ArwenEvenstar]

isn't 99 kind of young for Numenorean....

Yes it is rather young, Tar-Aldarion had to wait until he was 183 till he was handed down the sceptre.
