In C.Humphrey's Tolkien biography the autor says that Tolkien spent part of his young life in in idyllic Wales, not understanding anything of welsh,and wanted to make his own bright and happy language,probably working it out later and naming it Elven.After a while he could have thought about making a whole world around it.
