Kalarrn
Pronounced: KAL-arn
Meaning: Wrestling the Storm
This name combines two Elvish words: kal and arrn. The first is an adjective that means "struggling, contending, wrestling". It refers to someone who is hardy and will put up a fight, especially against things greater than themselves. The second part is the word arrn which means "storm".

The prefix au means "reborn". While the word don means "silver".
Sigór

Variants: Órsigin, Sigórn
Selmor
Pronounced: sel-mor
Meaning: Dark Forest
This name combines two words in Elvish: sel and mor. With this name, each syllable carries the same amount of stress. If not, the meaning of the name changes a lot!!
The word sel translates to "forest, woods" but has a deeper meaning. The woods it refers to are ancient - ones from a time many generations ago. These are the ancestral woods or one's related to a deity.
When the vowel is stress it gains even more importance in its mean. It means, "ancient, important, divine". This can be seen in the Elvish Séldarine, the name of their pantheon. As well as Séldal, which means "god, deity". It's important to make sure your elf doesn't accidently call themselves a god! (or maybe that's the point...)
The final element is a little simpler! The word mor means "darkness". Though, when stressed it means "true death" (dead without reincarnation).
Ultimately this is a very goth name when it comes to the Elves - while still retaining the popular nature theme of many Elvish names!
Mathor
