Idk my brother is the Lotr buff and this sent me down a rabbit hole. I guess its just his name in Telerin, but now I can say my brother is wrong about something he is passionate about and that in itself is worth it.

Maybe he found some interesting new uses for a Palantir.

First you have to crank the shaft to get some power & establish signal, then proceed to tell some 75%-of-minimum-wage operator in Mordor who you wish to contact, and only then explain in great detail a rather hot sexual encounter that borders on fantasy.
Such is the daily life of a junior teleporner.

I don’t think so, at least not meaningfully. Obviously it has a different meaning: tel- is seemingly a prefix that means “finish, end, be last”, and orn means tree (can also be seen in his other name, Celeborn). So the meaningful pieces would be tel and orn, which means that the p might be less pronounced than an English person would normally do it, but it doesn’t make much of a difference.

Hey, he earned that name in battle! Wear it proudly!
What did he do to earn his real name?

It fit (& transmitted) places you wouldn’t imagine!!
Elrond: “Is this… are we inside a cave? It’s day outside, but the Palantir itself is the only light. Oh Eru damn it, Celeborn!”

RNs will know what the ringtone would be.

“Is this one of those illegal channels? It’s so blurry you can’t even see anything. Oh wait there it is, wow, I thought that was an arm at first.”
Look, homie just tryin to make a dollar while competing against hardcore orc porn and hobbit scat fetish. Leave him alone
hobbit porn is just a guy ripping fat tokes on a pipe while gently stroking a rake
Dammit, and I just changed underwear!
As someone who’s a fan of the Silmarillion, idk how I never knew this.
Teleporno, son of Pornhubo, brother of xHamster, brother-in-law of Thin-rod.
Real time ultra fast (self-?)censorship directly on the data input bus to the brainhole.
Nothing is prefect, let us just pretend this didn’t happen just now & lets enjoy the work further.
I’m guessing.
They also have this weird cousin named Nhentai that nobody wants to acknowledge.
“Celeborn was a Sindarin prince of Doriath, being the grandson of Elmo”

Is it pronounced differently? Like Tokyo Sexwale isn’t pronounced like you just did in your head.
Sorry, as someone who frequently mispronounces everything, I’m not the right person to ask.

Tl;dr: he’s just named Teleporno ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
If we wanna be pedantic (and I usually do), Pippin’s Real Name is Razanur.

Where is that mentioned? I don’t remember it from the books.
It’s in the appendices. It tells us the authentic Westron names of all the main Hobbits we follow.
