I never really thought of Frodo as a "noble" hobbit. I thought of him "noble" in the way he acted, but he had no power like a king (well none of the hobbits really had that power in the Shire). Ever since I read the books I always thought of Frodo as a regular hobbit who has to do something that no one should ever have to do but it has to be done. So I always thought of him as rich, but not noble (the only thing that I thought really made him different was that he had a gardener)

Additionally I never really thought of Aragorn as extremely noble because he has been gone from his kingdom for a really long time in exile so he had kind of lost some of his "nobleness" (except for in the way he acted)
