Trivia Question....

What WAS, if indeed it had one, the name of the One Ring? Preferably the Elvish name for it.

OMG I was gonna say that!

Nope. Bob's your uncle.

Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul,
ash nazg thrakatulûk, agh burzum-ishi krimpatul.


There doesn't seem to be one, other than "Sauron's ring" or "Melkior's chief Maiar's ring"... (being silly with the latter)
the Ring seems to pretty much be it.

Just asked my live-in Tolkien Geek.

"It doesn't have a name. It's just the 'One Ring,' because it's unique enough to not need a name. It's never named in any of the books."
