Orofarnë
From Tolkien Gateway
Orofarnë was one of the rowans of Fangorn Forest, much beloved by the Ent Bregalad. It was cut down by Orcs of Isengard, arousing the anger of this impulsive Ent.
Etymology
The name means “Mountain dwelling” in Quenya[1]. It can be analyzed as oron and *farne.
Note that at some different point Tolkien gave farne as "foliage"[2], not as "dwelling".
