Titles rejected by Frodo, Bilbo and others. - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

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.
