Quenya and Sarati decoration: Már cata ná, i ambar palla. Ar limbi tier vantien nar.  English: Home is behind, the world wide. And many paths are for walking.

FINWË

Finwë's name is not fully translated. The glossary in the Silmarillion translates Fin as "hair"; other sources say it means "skill".

Finwë was the first High King of the Ñoldor (as such he is sometimes surnamed Ñoldóran) who led his elven people on the journey from Middle-earth to Valinor in the blessed realm of Aman. He was a great friend of Elu Thingol, the King of Doriath.

Finwë was perhaps one of the firstborn Elves (created solely from Eru Ilúvatar himself) who awoke in Cuiviénen.
