Shasta from The Horse and His Boy kind of reminds me of Pippin, mostly because he is so small and insignificant at the beginning of the story yet rises to save Narnia from invasion, just as Pippin plays his role to save Middle-earth and grows up in the process. Also, Shasta's feelings of insecurity and weakness remind me of how Pippin thinks of himself as "baggage" during his capture by the Uruk-hai. Puddleglum makes me think of Treebeard for some reason, maybe because both of them are kind of slow and solemn, although Treebeard isn't nearly as pessimistic.
