Gandalf has several names, depending on the language of those he is dealing with:

  • Gandalf - Common Speech; used by men, hobbits, etc.
  • Mithrandir - Sindarin; used by most elves
  • Olorin - Valarin; used by the Valar & Maiar in the Undying Lands (his original name, as he is of the Maiar)
  • etc.
