ainur has just left Hobbiton.
Actually, Thranduil's father was named Oropher. I don't know much about him or his ancestry, but I know he died in the battle of the Last Alliance. It's possible he was originally from Doriath, but that would not necessarily make him a relative of Thingol. I'm not sure, but I doubt it. Galadriel and Celeborn, I think, would have been more familiar with Legolas if he was that close to the house of Elwe, considering their own history in Doriath.
