[gothic-l] Re: Gothic names

[Mike]

Looking for a way to say Morgoth, which sadly was used by Tolkien, 
seems to have a Gothic or related language root to it, but any ideas 
of where? Failing this, looking for examples of c.1100 Crimean Goth 
names, for a persona I have for the local SCA group.

Gaut = Goth or Gaut (a God)
Mor = Dark/Black? Maur?
