Narvi (mid-Second Age) was a great Dwarven craftsman, probably of Durin's folk, who lived in Khazad-dûm during the height of its glory. He formed a friendship with the Elf-lord Celebrimbor, the master artificer of neighboring Eregion. Together they made the mighty Doors of Durin that guarded the West-gate of the Dwarven city.

Etymology

Narvi is an Old Norse name and character in Norse mythology.

Possibly the name is provided as a translation of the Dwarf's "outer" name from some Mannish language of the Northmen of the Second Age.[1][2]
