Nice topic! Anyways, I do believe that it is closely related to Atlantis. I also believe that Tolkien got a ton of inspiration from ancient islands of that nature such as: Avalon (Arthurian Legend), Fortunate Fields/ Isles of the Blessed (Greek Mythology) whereas Atlantis was a happy place. Like the mentioned above. ^_^
