I am a firm believer in finding true love through names and since my name translates is Maethoriel I'd like to know who Dordhaeron would be. I just can not find it, maybe you guys who study this can? Please help!!

Well...
dôr = land, homeland
daeron = either 'great' or derived from 'shadow' (Tolkien originally wrote the name as Dairon, from the Doriathrin Sindarin word for 'shadow', but then later changed it to Daeron).

There are many names with all of the above in them, if you're now searching for a modern name with that meaning.
