Plus there aren't that many 'tasks' in Tolkien's works. Ringbearing for Frodo, reclaiming the Silmarils for Feanor & Sons ... but these are too long and aren't synonyms for anyone.
Let's see. 'Lookout' for Balin. Again, not a synonym.
Burglar/thief/thieving ... not anagrams of Bilbo/Baggins.
Then there's gardener for Sam and steward for many, and king for many, and landlord for Butterbur. But these are *professions,* not individual tasks. Also, not character-synonyms.
Unless there was ever a king whose name was a synonym of 'monarch.'

What if I told you that the answer is in the post I just quoted?
