Zimrahin
Zimrahin was a woman from the Folk of Marach.
She wedded Malach Aradan in First Age 337, after his return from fourteen years in Hithlum. After marriage she took the Elvish name of Meldis and became the mother of Adanel and Magor.
Etymology
Zimrahin is obviously a Mannish name of the Folk of Marach. The name seems to contain the later Adûnaic element zimra "jewel", and possibly means "jewel child". Adûnaic would emerge as a descendant of the language Zimhrahin was speaking.
Meldis is the Sindarin name of Zimrahin. The meaning of the name is "friend".
Other versions of the legendarium
The character only appears in The 'Folk of Marach' family tree, publichsed in The War of the Jewels.
In the first conception of the table, there was a note for multiple children that said, "Others not concerned in these Chronicles". In version two of the table, this became one name, a third child caled "Sael..th" that was changed to "Saelon"; finally the name and birth-date were struck out.
