I was working with old=not new in #9, but given that you already have Old Took and Old Man Willow I'm not sure how much more Old you can fit in one password.

Disagree. Orofarne, Oiolosseo, Osgiliath, Orodruin and Onodrim, to name but five!
... However ... I think 14 is ORALD, another name for Tom Bombadil. It's lost in Ladros in that all of its five letters are in the name. Bombadil is a singular fellow (no other like him) ... and is his house by the Withywindle? I guess Tom has to feature somewhere in a list of things/people not in the films!

Just a guess at Mithrandir for the M clue, because the elves sang 'Mithrandir! O Pilgrim Grey!' in a lament for him.
Of course he's in the films, but is the name Mithrandir ever used?

Thought of Underhill, but Film Frodo does say 'My name is Underhill' in the Prancing Pony, IIRC.

Could the other O clue be Olog or Olog-hai? I seem to recall there being two trolls in Moria in the book. The film has only one. They are a race, though.
Or maybe Old Stone Troll, viz Sam's song, left out of the films.
