I'd have to say that all of the Valar(with the exception of Mandos, Varda and Ulmo) are pretty overlooked in my opinion. They've done such great things and practically noboby gives the recongnition they diserve. As for Mandos...he made a name for himself with that scary "The doom of Mandos" speech. Varda(aka Elbereth) is mentioned so often the the trilogy, but only as one would say praises or thanks. She's become a byword. Ulmo is a little less recongnised but more so than any other Valar. I think he was mentioned at least once in the Trilogy, and is he wasn't...people still tend to know who he is.
