"We were told by the Warden of the Beacon-tower, a garrulous man in dire need of more human companionship, that "Lond Nornin", the contemporary name of this estuary, meant "Haven of Oaks". The local dialectal word norn "oak" was new to us.it's proper form im the King's Sindarin was of course "doron", and the name of the haven should have been "Lond Deryn". As His Majesty also knows, in Minas Tirith "Norn" is an old term for "Dwarf". But when we remarked to the Warden, purely in jest, that in the Capital Lond Nornin would likely be interpreted as "Haven of Dwarves", he became insulted and asked us to leave. Clearly the subtleties of a cultured wit are wasted on such bumpkins" -Findegil of Gondor
