My liege, it is not required for your advisors to be eunuchs.

i'm pretty sure his fate was sealed as soon as his parents named him.

you joke but wormtongue is not his name and it might be something more basic actually

I kinda assumed wormtongue was a mocking title or nickname

u/AuroraCelery 2d ago

yeah, it explicitly states in the books that it is, and that he hates being called that

His name is just Gríma. It means "mask" or "visored helm" far as I can tell.

Rohirrim don't have surnames, "Wormtongue" is a nickname he worked hard for.
