Goldberry is not an Elf! I'm not entirely sure what she was, but not an Elf.

...up came Goldberry, the River-woman's daughter...

...Never mind your mother in her deep weedy pool: there you'll find no lover!
Those are from "The Adventures of Tom B*mbadil."

Quote:
By that pool long ago I found the River-daughter,
fair young Goldberry sitting in the rushes.
Sweet was her singing then, and her heart was beating!
That's from FotR. There is no mention anywhere of Goldberry being an Elf.

Do excuse my rant.
