I have two cats and their names are actually Merry and Pippin. But just about any Tolkien name would do for a pet.
I wouldn't want to saddle a person with something like Galadriel -- way too obvious and likely to be mispronounced. Most of the names are like that. I like the simpler names like Elanor and Rosie and Sam. Diamond is a little on the odd side but still workable. Eomer, Eowyn, Boromir, and Faramir are iffy: I like them, but would I actually name a child that? Probably not....
