I'd have to go with Eowyn. Although she could not have made the final blow without Merry's help, it was still Eowyn who dealt the killing stoke to his head. As i said in the last topic about Smaug, any medical examiner would conclude that the death was caused by the blow to the head caused by Eowyn. (In the Smaug discussion, i talked about Bard's arrow) But, with out Merry stabbing his knee, she would have been killed first. Technically and medicaly speaking, Eowyn was responsible for the death of the King of the Nazgul.
