Raefindel- I don't think you're the only one. Someone else was getting us confused earlier. I just find it funny. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] It's right up there with all the times people on other message boards think I'm a man (I guess "Razzek" does sound a little masculine).

but it was kinda hard for me to think up some name for me to do with Frodo, since I'm female
Actually, "Frodo", in the Hobbit-tongue, is the more feminine name. The letter "a", apperently, was seen as a more masculine ending for names in the Shire. (I found this all out in the translations notes in the appendices. Thank you, Mr. Tolkien!) So, Frodo's real name is "Froda"! And I'd be Roso, wouldn't I? *snicker* That just souinds funny.
