Good ob, Lomelindi! This is kind of harder: what is the name of the wizard that turned Rover into a toy?

Artaxerxes, a passing wizard whom Rover annoyed.

(I read Roverandom and loved it, and you don't easily forget a name like "Artaxerxes.")

Whoooo Hooooo! I read Roverandom too! I didn't think that like, anyone else did! Cool! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

What is Meriadoc "Merry" Brandybuck's formal/other name?

Meriadoc Brandybuck's real name was Kalimac Brandagamba.

Joy's got it.

(I didn't think it was possible for there to be an odder hobbit name than Meriadoc Brandybuck, but there it is…poor guy, he's got to have both of the weirdest names.)

I think it's a fairly interesting name. Besides, you have to admit that it's better than Fatty Bolger!! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
