In some of Tolkien's notes, it is said that Sauron's original name was Mairon or "the admirable", "but this was altered after he was suborned by Melkor. But he continued to call himself Mairon the Admirable, or Tar-mairon 'King Excellent', until after the downfall of Númenor." The name Sauron (from an earlier form Þauron) originates from the adjective saura "foul, putrid" in Tolkien's invented language Quenya, and can be translated as the Abhorred or the Abomination. In Sindarin (another Elf-language created by Tolkien) he is called Gorthaur, the Abhorred Dread or the Dread Abomination. He is also called the Nameless Enemy. The Dúnedain (the descendants of Isildur) call him Sauron the Deceiver due to his role in the Downfall of Númenor and the forging of the Rings of Power. In the Númenorean (Adûnaic) tongue he was also known as Zigûr, The Wizard. His two most common titles, the Dark Lord of Mordor and the Lord of the Rings, appear only a few times in The Lord of the Rings. His other titles or variants thereof include Base Master of Treachery, the Dark Lord, the Dark Power, Lord of Barad-dûr, the Red Eye, the Ring-maker, and the Sorcerer. In the First Age (as detailed in The Silmarillion) he was called the Lord of Werewolves of Tol-in-Gaurhoth. In the Second Age he assumed the name Annatar, which means Lord of Gifts, and "Aulendil" meaning friend of Aulë, as well as Artano, meaning High-Smith, with which he assumed a new identity and tricked the Elves into working with him to create the Rings. In the Third Age he was briefly known as the Necromancer of Dol Guldur because his true identity was still unknown. According to Russian historian Alexandr Nemirovsky, it is likely that the name Sauron is meaningful in the language of Mordoth and Hurrian language. He etymologized the name from the hurrian word Sau-ra-n(ne), meaning "possessing the weapon" or "armed".
