tom bombariffic has just left Hobbiton.
Tolkien

I suppose its likely that you're right Nicoli, the best desrcription is probably "Tom Is", no matter how cryptic that is. But still, most of the time, our Ideas do come from somewhere, from something we know or have experienced. I doubt he was entirely made up, with absolutely no connection to anything else tolkien had ever thought of.
