The Witch-king's true name was never given, and therefore, among J.R.R. Tolkien fans, the Witch-king is often simply called Angmar, after the name of the realm he founded and led (like how Arthur Wellesley, the Duke of Wellington who helped defeat Napoléon at Waterloo, was and is referred to as simply "Wellington"). Many fans also identify him as one of the three Black Númenóreans that J.R.R. Tolkien stated had become Nazgûl or possibly Isilmo, a Númenórean Prince and father of Tar-Minastir. In the now defunct Middle-earth role playing game, he was named "Er-Murazor," a Númenórean Prince, though this is strictly non-canonical. In the Angband computer game, he was listed as "Murazor, the Witch-king of Angmar."
