Ok, new idea: GG IS Finduilas. After the whole Turin disaster, she decides that waiting around for a valorous hero to save her - or her people - is not a good plan. Better to be a sensible hero oneself. And because the Noldor are sexist, she decides to do this in male disguise, claiming to have been sent away for safety (which sounds like something Orodreth would do). She can pass any family-oriented test, because she knows the family... And almost everyone who watched her grow up as herself is dead.
Note that this explains GGs childlessness, both because it would be awkward, and because she might be sick of romance by this point.
