What is the worst name in Tolkien’s legendarium (meaning and look)?

On defence of poor Celeborn, his Sindarin name is Celeb-Orn (“silvery tall-one”), which becomes Telep-Orno in Quenya, not Tele-Porno. Compare Celebrimbor > Tyelperinquar.

Mount Doom. He really should have used more imagination with that.

Túna for the name of hill is perfectly good. In Swedish, it means “fenced homestead”, such as Eskilstuna, Sollentuna, Vallentuna etc.

What would TERFs do if there weren't such a thing as being transgender? Who would be their target?
