eleanor_niphredil has just left Hobbiton.
Sting Wierd coincidences

I've just been reading The History of Midle-Earth 6- return of the shadow.In the first few versions of the chapter "A Long Expected Party", Tolkien names 4 seperate hobbits Orlando, and one Vigo.
Did no-one else realise this? How weird is that? It's not like they are popular names, less when LOTR was written.
I find it creepy.
