anglo-saxon names

Anglo-Saxon names were often made up of two words combined. For example, King elred's name was derived from "el", for "noble", and "rd", for "counsel". Honourifics were often added after names, rather than before. For example, King Edmund was "Edmund cyning". In Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, the culture of the Rohirrim is based on that of the Anglo-Saxons, and so Theoden, their king, is referred to as "Theoden King", rather than "King Theoden".
