Úmanyar
From Tolkien Gateway
Úmanyar were the Eldar who never came to Aman; a term referring to the Elves who set out on the Great Journey but ultimately remained in Middle-earth. Such Eldar were mostly of the Nelyar,[1] such as the Sindar and the Nandor.
Other versions of the legendarium
Earlier names for these Elves were Ekelli,[2] replaced by Alamanyar, which was replaced by Úmanyar.[3]
