A noun in the Gnomish Lexicon of the 1910s said to be the equivalent of G. lûm [“time”] or G. olod [“tide”] as well as having the sense “weather” (GL/55). It was probably based on the early root ᴱ√LUHU which had various time-related derivatives (QL/56), since in GL is was grouped with other time-words.

Precursor to S. Elbereth from the Gnomish Lexicon from the 1910s, a combination of tim “star” and Bridhil “queen” (GL/24, 70). In this period, only its Qenya equivalent ᴱQ. Tinwetári was used in the narratives. The name did appear in the earliest Silmarillion drafts of the late 1920s (SM/82), and a variant of this name, N. Timbredhil, appeared in The Etymologies from the 1930s (Ety/TIN), but starting with the Lord of the Rings drafts from the 1940s, Tolkien consistently used Elbereth instead.
