What was Galadriel's child's name

[Ejen34]

Greetings...

I have read that Galadriel, daughter of Finarfin married Celeborn and had a
child. I can not for the life of me find the name of that child. Can anyone
help?

Sure can. Celeborn and Galadriels only child was a girl named Celebrían. She
later wedded Elrond Peredhil and bore him Arwen Evenstar.

Celebriant, I think, from memory. Mrs Elrond to you.

Celebrian, Elrond's wife.

eje...@aol.com (Ejen34) has written:

Celebrian, wife of Elrond, mother of Arwen (and Elladan and Elrohir).

Depending on the source you read, G & C are also the parents of Amroth.

Good lord, do you mean that Galadrial was Aragorns prospective
grand-mother in law?

Yes. Not only that, but Arwen and Aragorn actually plighted their troth in
Lórien.

Also, Aragorn is descended from Elros, brother of Elrond, so this is a
merging of the Elf-Human bloodlines again.

so this may make his relationship to Galadriel almost as complicated as
Frodo's to Bilbo's :) .

This was after Aragorn returned to Lorien for a rest after many years in the
wild. Galadriel clothed him in fresh clothes and a jewel upon his forehead.
He looked like an elven prince. Then he just happens to meet Arwen there
again. Sounds like Galadriel was playing
matchmaker.

Celebrían, who later married Elrond (Hugo Weaving, in the movie). They had
a daughter named Arwen (portrayed in the movie by Liv Tyler), who later
married Aragon( Viggo Mortensen).

Well, Elrond and Elros got to choose what race they would belong too.
Elrond chose to be an elf, while Elros chose to be man, but was granted a
500 year lifespan so he was a bit "special".

The point is made (somewhere) that Elros was *physically* able to
live as long as Elrond; there was no physical necessity that he die.
However, the basic characteristic of humans (at least in Tolkien's
world) is that they grow tired of Middle-earth and desire to go
elsewhere. So Elros voluntarily *chooses* to die and leave "the
Circles of the World"; 500 doubtless seemed like a good round number to
him. :)

That might have been true in Elros's case, but not in the case of Men in
general. Most of the kings after Tar-Atanamir, far from being tired of the
world and willing to die, had to be carried out kicking and screaming.

Galadriel's daughter was Elrond's wife. I want to say her name was
Celebrian, but I could be wrong and I'm too lazy to go into the next room
and fetch a book. She was kidnapped and tormented by orcs while travelling
from Rivendell to Lorien (or from Lorien to Rivendell) and left Middle
Earth because the injuries to her soul were too great (even though Elrond
healed her physically). Her sons, Eladan and Elrohir (Arwen's brothers)
spent the rest of their time on Middle Earth kicking orc ass in revenge.
Therefore, Galadriel is Elrond's mother in law and Arwen's grandmother.

[Gandalf]

You are correct, her name was Celebrian. I think she was traveling back to
Rivendell when captured.

So now Celeborn and Galadriel are Aragorn's grandparents as well. How would
you like to have grandparents over 3 thousand years old? Or a spouse over
1500 years old? It would be hard to tell them anything or teach them
anything new, eh? "been there, done that, etc."

One of the few things they did right in the movie... Galadriel and Arwen
*looked* like close kin to me.

Although I thought something was going to come out of Galadriel in that
nutty temptation scene. Looked like she was possessed with the alien dude
in Stargate.

Maybe, but the Elves call Men "Inscrutables", because they're always doing
unexpected things. ;)
