After I wrote that, I wondered the same thing but then got too tired/distracted to explore the word association further. Thanks for picking up the baton!
Personally, I think that, regardless of the all of the Tolkien and real world etymology, there're certain letter combinations that sound harsher than others, such as naz, which could help characterize the evil folk by the sound of their name. Much better for inspiring fear and nastiness than bombadil-gul.
