Sancta Philomena Ora Pro Nobis

The translation via google is, "the holy nightengale pray for us."

It may seam humorous but in the Lord of the Rings Tinuviel means "nightengale." I was wondering if JRR Tolkien got his idea from that image?

Thank you for posting this. This has relevance to something that just happened in my life. My new kitten's middle name is Philomena.

He possibly could have. Does she have arrows in the book?
