Well done! Mostly correct. "Neb" is found more in northern dialect, perhaps (nowadays, at least) - "Keep your neb out" was an expression my mother was quite fond of.
Yes, Ilmare is "I" plus "realm," Varda's helpmeet (and both quite concerned with the stars and the heavens). I did look up helpmeet, and it doesn't necessarily have to be a helper who is a mate as in partner (although it usually is).
Lothlorien is very nearly right, but I usually account for every bit of the word ... you've just provided a little too much. Maybe splitting hairs, but ....
I'd say the first T is the most obscure of those remaining. But it's findable.
T: Declare sudden flight in confusion on the Blessed Isle.
HAMFAST: Hobbit on a kosher diet?
ELURIN: Entice within? Disorientated. One of a doomed pair.
ELBORON: The Spanish element has a princely quality.
ADALGRIM: Young Wormtongue confused at Great Smials?
GALATHEA: Unfortunate bovine creature.
LAWKS: Roundabout perambulations, Merry exclaims.
E: Troubled double agent in Doriath.
AROS: A mixture of rowing implements needed here.
N: Probably a homely place, if no entrance to paradise.
DALE: Heavy metal town? Confused.
CEORL: Galadriel’s squeeze keeps beak out for a warrior.
HASUFEL: Ash fuel used for transport in Rohan.
ILMARE: First person joins troubled kingdom. A heavenly helpmeet.
LOTH: It blooms unwillingly.
DURIN: Legendary priest gets muddled and loses note, but gains direction as immortal, perhaps?
