In briefanswer capsule

Nienor was of Men, daughter of Húrin and Morwen and sister to Túrin. Morwen named her Nienor at birth, which means Mourning. She was robbed of her memory. After Túrin found refuge in Doriath under Thingol's fostering, envoys urged Morwen to leave Dor-lómin for that land; she refused to quit the house where she had lived with Húrin and sent instead the Dragon-helm of Dor-lómin, foremost treasure of Hador's line.
