That wasn't a suggested title, that's just something that happened.

Here we have:

The Lord of the Rings...

Gandalf's Freakish eyebrows 2

Saruman's technicolour dream coat

How a Hobbit upstaged the Kings

How about for Lord of the Rings-

We Love to Walk (No, the Eagles COULD NOT Have Just Flown Us To Mordor).

Treebeard wanted for LotR
"Bilbo dissapears, Frodo gets the ring, four hobbits get stuck in the woods, they go to Bree then Strider takes them to Weathertop by the Witchking, they get to Rivendell, get another man, an elf, and a dwarf, then Gandalf battled the Balrog in Moria, and fell, the rest of the fellowship went to Lothlorien, Boromir got killed, Frodo and Sam left, Merry and Pippin got taken by orks, then Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli went to follow them, Frodo and Sam got Gollum, Gollum leads them to the dead marshes, Merry and Pippins orc gang got Attacked by orks, they escaped into Fangorn and met Treebeard, Frodo and Sam got to the Black Gate then left, Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli got to Edoras, Merry and Pippin got to the Ent-Moot, The Battle at helms deep, The ents and Merry and Pippin destroyed Isengaurd, Frodo and Sam went up the Stairs of Cirith Ungol, Pippin gets the Palantir then looks at it, Frodo and Sam get to Shelob's cave, Pippin goes to Minis Tirith with Gandalf, Merry goes to the battle of Pellenor fields and stabs witch king while Eowen did the rest, Pippin saves Merry, Frodo gets poisoned and gets taken by orcs and thus he and Sam get into Mordor, Merry gets to the Houses of Healing, and gets healed, Sam saves Frodo they put on orc garb an walk to Mt. Doom, Pippin goes to a battle in front of the Black Gate and gets smashed by a troll, Frodo and Sam went and destroyed the ring with Gollums help, They get rescued and come back to Minus Tirith, and go home, and Beat the ruffians and Saurman in the Scouring, Sam gets married, They get to the gray havens and Frodo sails off, "Well I'm back" he said.

But Merry and Pippin said that this was Ent fashion and it was too long, Bilbo and Frodo agreed.

Merry and Pippin also wanted "The Adventures of Merry and Pippin"
That was declined because it was not just about Merry and Pippin.

Also some other suggestions-
  • Some Hobbits and a Ring
  • Gollums Quest: The Search for "My Presssioussssss"
  • Hey Lets go and get Killed
  • Smeagol is nice: He lead Frodo and Sam into Mordor didn't he?
  • Were all going to starve!
  • How Pippin is "A Fool of A Took"

White Tree

The Hobbit:
- Out of the Silent Shire (C S Lewis objected)
- The War of the Wolds (H G Wells sent Tolkien an angry letter for this one)

The Lord of the Rings:
- The Golden Ke- I mean Ring (Andrew Lang was suspicious)
- The Hobbit's Guide to the Galaxy (The ghost of Douglas Adams traveled through time to say 'no')
- Pirates of the corsairs: The Curse of the Gold Ring (Now it's just getting silly)

But the Silmarillion could very possibly have been called:
- Space monsters and Sumo wrestlers. No, SERIOUSLY!
- Snow White And The Seven Sons of Feanor

A little known tale about the later life of Aragorn and Arwen was titled:
- Honey, I Forgot Our Anniversary OR How Aragorn died by being impaled on the tower of Ecthelion.

Boots Random Title #731

For The Sil:
~"Men are from Middle Earth, Elves are from Valinor"

For LOTR
~"A tale of 2 Men, 4 Hobbits, An Elf, A Dwarf, and a Wizard"

After deciding the last was too wordy, Tolkien tried this one,

~ "A tale of 2 Towers"

But then decided it resembled other classics a little too closely.
