Происхождение названий молей Кайла (after Larsen, 2007):
"Thirteen of these (E. finarfinella, E. indisella, E. curufinella, E. maglorella, E. caranthirella, E. turgonella, E. celegormella, E. daeronella, E. miriella, E. serindella, E. guilinella, E. amrodella, and E. aredhella) indeed do arise from “the ancient Elves, which one after the other sailed over the waters to the West, and were later difficult to see with Human eyes” (Kaila [1999, p.] 4). Two species are named after dwarves (E. ibunella and E. telcharella), and seventeen honor human characters (E. morwenella, E. marachella, E. haldarella, E. dagnirella, E. aerinella, E. gildorella, E. bregorella, E. arthadella, E. turinella, E. nienorella, E. tuorella, E. rianella, E. neithanella, E. beorella, E. eilinella, E. gorlimella, and E. ragnorella). E. olorinella recognizes Gandalf ’s name in Valinor, E. diorella is named for the son of Beren and Lúthien, and E. taurnonella honors the Vala Oromë. E. telerella appears to be named for the Teleri, the third kindred of the Eldar, while E. galadella derives its name from the Galadrim of Lothlórien (or perhaps Galadriel or Gil-galad). Finally, E. aranella seems to owe its name to aran-, the “royal prefix used by the Kings of Arthedain after Malvegil and by the Chieftains of the Dúnedain of the North to indicate their claim to all of Arnor” (Foster [2001, p.] 23)" (Larsen, 2007, p. 225).
