I'm really fond of the headcanon that it was Melkor who first translated his lieutenant's Valarin name into Quenya. Since it's pretty much established that he wasn't living in Valinor when the elves were there, no one would have had the chance to call him "Mairon" before Melkor.
Most likely the two of them continued speaking Valarin and referring to each other by their Valarin names in private. But logically, for the elves to twist that name from Admirable to Abhorred, they first had to hear it from somewhere. So it makes sense that he initially introduced himself to them by that name, and that someone must have taught him it.
I think it is interesting how important Nienna would end up being, that she was the teacher of Gandalf. Because a major underlying theme of Tolkien's writing is hope. And if Nienna is the Valar of grief, how do those fit together?
The thing is, I think Nienna is also the Vala of empathy. In order to truly grief for the pain and suffering in the world, when you are a Valar who does not really feel that, except maybe when you take a body that you can then easily discard, empathy is necessary.
The other Valar often seem very removed from the world. It isn't that they don't care, because they do. But they still seem distant, separated. Nienne, in her grief, sees the world. She feels for the suffering of all the beings of Arda. She cries at deaths. And she teaches Gandalf to feel that grief too and to feel that empathy.
And I would also note that in grieving for the world as it is, for the suffering of all people, she is also grieving for the world that could be and yet is not. And that is hopeful. She has a vision for how the world should be, she sees how it is broken, and she grieves.
And of the five of the Maia sent to Middle Earth, it is Gandalf who becomes most invested in the world and its inhabitants. It is Gandalf who feels empathy, who sees the peoples of Middle Earth. And it is Gandalf who is ultimately the one who is able to remain fully faithful and succeed in the task that they were sent to achieve.
And empathy is possibly the most important thing in the ultimate destruction of the Ring. The empathy towards Gollum by Bilbo, Gandalf, Frodo, and Sam is what allows Gollum to survive and ultimately leads to the Ring'd destruction.
So I personally think that in being the Vala of grief, Nienna is necessarily also the Vala of empathy. And that is what ultimately saves Middle Earth.
Okay, now I'm picturing Mairon, in Annatar guise, coming up with ways to praise Melkor while not sounding like he's doing so. Talking about how scary Melkor was, how horrifying battles were, how overwhelming Melkor's power was. All praise, but sounding like he's talking about the villain everyone else sees Melkor as.
Or better yet tricking other people into saying those things about Melkor just so he can listen to others talk about Melkor's power.
The thing I love most about Tolkien is how explicitly homosexual he accidentally made Sauron.
1) Got seduced by Melkor.
2) Seduced a man by disguising himself as his wife.
3) Seduced Celebrimbor.
4) Seduced Ar-Pharazon.
5) Seduced the Kings of Men.
But when it comes to the only 2 women he's canonically interacted with, seduction is never on the table for him. No, he just tried to placate Galadriel and give Luthien to Melkor. The same two women who Tolkien describes as the most beautiful women to have ever lived, and he doesn't even try or care.

We talk so much about Mairon worshipping Melkor. But the reverse is totally true. in Melkor's eyes, Mairon is the most perfect being in all the universe. Melkor just adores Mairon. Melkor hates everything else in the universe. Melkor even at times hates himself. But Mairon is everything good to Melkor. Mairon is everything.
It's my 16 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳
Wow. Been with this account and my Tolkien nerding for 16 years.
Mairon clearly invented coffee.

Maedhros: God, give me patience. Because if you give me strength I'm going to need bail money.

Elrond: Spidersssss
Morgoth: Can you all do me one favor and keep him far away from me?
Sauron: Don't look at me! Spiders are my worst nightmare!
Elrond: You're - you're scared of spiders? But they're so cute!
Morgoth: She tried to eat me!
Elrond: But look at her cute face!
All of Utumno: *Hysteric screaming*
Maglor: Elrond seems to be having fun.
Maedhros: Why didn't we think of this sooner?
