I don't think it's neccesarily a contradiction of Tolkien's. Since it doesn't neccesarily mean they are using there true names. Just a given name, like Thorin or any of the other Mannish names Durin's folk used. Or it could be a description of themselves as you stated.

Also, I forgot to mention the great smiths of the Firebeards Gamil Zirak and Telchar.
