Elven language question (for linguistics nerds)

[darkbard]

Kind of a strange request here: A player in my game has an elven character with a fey beast companion, a fey panther. We've scoured online Elven dictionaries but cannot find a good Elven analogue for the panther's Common language name, Sneak. Sure, we could just make something up, but it's more fun (to us, anyway!) if there's a little internal consistency. So if anyone can recommend a good Elvish name (preferably Sindarin, but any fantasy Elvish tongue would work), I would appreciate it! Many thanks!

I guess another way of looking at my question is what other synonyms or analogues of "sneak" might apply in this case? I've looked for other words that denote a similar meaning: prowl, stalk, etc. But none of these appear in online Elven dictionaries like the following: http://www.jrrvf.com/hisweloke/sindar/online/sindar/dict-en-sd.html

Have you tried "walk silent"? I have no idea what language you are referring to, but I guess those two words are more likely to have been coined.

 

[Nytmare]

Morchant - dark shape
Thurin - stealthy
Lhoss or Rhoss - whisper
Delu Tîn - silent but deadly

 

[Halivar]

Delu Tîn - silent but deadly

Or the alternative in Quenya, Rac Súrë, which means "break wind".

Thanks, Nytmare. Guess I wasn't thinking as expansively about this as I could have. Glad I asked for aid!
