	While the Witch-king is one of the main antagonists, ''The Lord of the Rings'' never names to any of the other Ringwraiths, and instead refers to them only as a collective. Tolkien only named one other Nazgûl in his writing: Khamûl the Easterling in ''Unfinished Tales''~~, a book compiled by his son based on his notes~~.		While the Witch-king is one of the main antagonists, ''The Lord of the Rings'' never names any of the other Ringwraiths, and instead refers to them only as a collective. Tolkien only named one other Nazgûl in his writing: Khamûl the Easterling in ''Unfinished Tales''.

	As Decipher only had rights to what was in ''The Lord of the Rings'' and ''The Hobbit'', they couldn't have used Khamûl regardless (albeit they did make a nod to it on {{Card\|Ulaire Attea, the Easterling}}), and this wouldn't have helped name the other seven in any case. Using the names created by previous Tolkien licensors like Iron Crown's ''Middle-Earth Role-Playing System'' wasn't practical since it had to go through ~~past~~ the Tolkien Estate and the previous licensors for permission, and risked running into the same issue of fans unhappy with non-canonical original names. Decipher's interim solution in playtesting was "First Nazgûl," "Second Nazgûl," etc. but that wasn't very interesting.

	Eventually, one of the playtesters at Decipher suggested taking the generic names and translating them into (neo)-Quenya, the scholarly language of the elves, using a then-recently-published guide to Quenyan ordinals<ref>Wayback - Naming the Nazgul: http://web.archive.org/web/20050209163021/http://www.decipher.com:80/lordoftherings/articles/2001/namingthenazgul.html</ref>. The singular word ''Úlairë'' was derived from ''The Silmarillion'''s Quenya name for the Nazgûl, ''Úlairi'', and then each Nazgûl had its number attached accordingly: "Second Nazgûl" becomes "Úlairë Attëa", "Third Nazgûl" becomes "Úlairë Nelya", and so on.

			While the Witch-King is one of the main antagonists, ''The Lord of the Rings'' only refers to the other ringwraiths as a collective, never by name. (One other Nazgûl has a name, Khamûl the Easterling, but it's from ''Unfinished Tales'', and Decipher didn't have a license to use that. They did make a nod to it, with {{Card\|Ulaire Attea, the Easterling}}.) Rather than making them generic, non-[[unique]] characters, [[Decipher]] gave them original names, albeit very simple ones. Their names are titles in (neo)-Quenya, the scholarly language of the elves. ''Úlairë'' is a (fan-made) singular version of ''Úlairi'', the Quenya plural word for "ringwraiths" from ''The Silmarillion'', and the second part of their name is just an ordinal number. The Witch-king is the first Nazgûl, and after that the others in order are Attëa, Nelya, Cantëa, Lemenya, Enquëa, Otsëa, Toldëa, and Nertëa.
