    The thirteenth letter of the tengwar is anto which is used for the letter combination NT. The word anto means "mouth".

    About My Name
    My name, as you see, is Moriel, and yes, this is a name in Quenya. The first part of the name, Mor-, comes from the word mornië meaning "darkness" or "blackness". The -iel ending is a feminine ending that means "daughter of". Hence, Moriel is translated as "daughter of darkness". I chose this name because the first several decades of my life were dominated by trauma and severe depression, and so the person I grew up to be is someone who was born from a figurative darkness.
