-//Sauron// is the name in Quenya (Thauron, Gorthaur in Sindarin). //Morgoth// is considered also as Sindarin word (a name given to Melkor by Fëanor) with translations "Black Foe" or "Dark Tyrant". Chapter "The List of Names" of "The Lost Road and Other Writings" states that orcs called him the same but with meaning "Dark Lord". But more frequently he was referred simply as "Goth" ("Master"). Probably this word was later used for Sauron also, specially when he started the cult of Morgoth and even call himself a "Morgoth returned". In "The Book Of Lost Tales" (HOME 1) there is also a name of servant of Melkor, "Fankil" aka "Fúkil" aka "Fangli" of unknown origin, whose role was later taken by Sauron. "The Lays of Beleriand" (HOME 3) have "Lungorthin" name for lord of Balrogs (untranslated, probably means "Heavy Idol" in Gnomish), which was replaced with "Gothmog" in later writings and published Silmarillion.+//Sauron// is the name in Quenya (Thauron, Gorthaur in Sindarin). //Morgoth// is considered also as Sindarin word (a name given to Melkor by Fëanor) with translations "Black Foe" or "Dark Tyrant".

Beren and Felagund called themselves "Nereb" and "Dungalef" when were disguised as orcs, but these names are mere anagrams of their real names, and thus are not listed here.
