I am beating my head over 11. The only answer that gets triggered by 6 is "Gollum's teeth". I've gone over various countable things that Sauron could have six of, down to "letters in a name" and other silly things. Could he have had 6 forms/shapes/bodies? I can't list that many *known* ones, and I guess they aren't entirely countable as he could change his shape at will in his early days and who knows how many he went through.

I have a feeling that "by another title" is cue for a punny answer based on his other names...
Ha, no, nothing to do with teeth. I think it kind of is a punny question, and is based on one of Sauron's titles, just like it says.

It is indeed! Very good. (Now, can you figure out why?)

WORLD - What they sang about (in the vernacular)
2. R - Many warriors had this; 3/4 is what there are 3/4 of
3. I - What manner of hell is this?
TREE - A lineage stretching from Tirion to Minas Tirith.
TONGUE - What we speak, and what by
EAST - Gondorians do not speak of its breath.
7. N - Everyone has one (or two... or more!)
STARLIGHT - What the first children saw by
YOKE - Between two horses, but write otherwise and it's golden treasure
MOUTH - Sauron has one of these; unlike most, he can send his away
11. B - By another title, Sauron has six of these
12. O - A heart, a rise, a miner's prize
LAMP - Two once died, to be replaced by two and two again
SOUTH - Where the stars are strange
