Selmo has just left Hobbiton.
Pipe Names

I came across this site at web page

Kabalarian philosophy suggests that the sound of your name affects your personality and this web site will give an analysis of your name.

I entered some of Tolkien's characters' names and was surprised to find that they were accepted as if they were real names.
The following are extracts from the analyses of names from Lord of the Rings.


Your name of Gimli has many sterling qualities but does not give you an overall stability. You do everything with an intensity to the point of fervour, and either you feel tremendous elation or you are in the depths of despair. ……. Patience is not one of your virtues; you want to move when the impulse strikes you.

Your name of Aragorn has given you the ability to handle people. You are pleasant and diplomatic, and seem to sense how others feel. For this reason, you could do well in public relations work. ……. . While you could do well in certain positions of authority, you have a certain lack of initiative and a tendency to procrastinate.
(That last bit shows Aragorn in his period of self-doubt at Parth Galen.)

Your name Samwise gives you a strong sense of responsibility in business and material affairs, and the practicality and determination to make a success of anything you undertake. ……… You have a very responsible nature, are capable and mature, and are willing to assume a position as a pillar of the community.


The analyses for the hobbit names Frodo and Bilbo both make reference to a liking for lots of food.

Are these just coincidences?
