Write your name
in
Tengwar
, the
Elvish language/alphabet
created by JRR Tolkien. You can work with
Tengwar
fonts
based on
Middle Earth languages and runes
and see many examples of the script via a Google Image
search
. According to Tolkien,
"there is quite a bit of linguistic wisdom in it."
There are certainly websites devoted to his
languages and thier history
. And It took some thought and work to make the speech sound right
in the movies
.
