For N: I rather want this to be an elements clue, gas + gas + note. Ne (neon) would work for the first gas, as would N (Nitrogen); but I can't get any further than that.
O: I've looked for Hobbit O-names which are Primary World names indicating greatness, but none are really coming up.
B: I have no idea.

Right thinking for the N clue, and one of your gases is right. Think which Book we're in. Where haven't we been yet?
Clue for the O hobbit: JOHN KEATS.
