TL;DR I need help with elvish to name my sword.
I want to name my fencing sword after Aragorn’s Andúril. I know it means Flame of the West in elvish Quenya and that is uses the noun andúnë and the suffix ril, that I believe comes from the word wilma.
I’d like my sword to be the Flame of the East, so I sorted the nouns orontë, anarórë, hrómen, that might either mean East or Sunrise. How would any of them behave with the suffix ril, following the right grammar rules for Quenya? And how would the three names be written in tengwar?
Thanks in advance.

name it anything, you're going to cringe yourself to death just as hard in five years anyway. I hope.

From what I've found, 'ril' itself is a word/suffix that just means "brillance, glitter, shine", and so there's no need to alter it.
Following the pattern of Andúril and what little I understand of Tolkein's grammar structures, the names would probably come out something like Orontril (flame of sunrise), Anaróril (also flame of sunrise), and Hrómril/Hrómenril (flame of the east).
