Ah, of course! As mentioned in HoME XIV: The Weird Bits, the Gladden Fields were famously used to make a rich yellow dye. Naturally it was exported west by the Hobbits, which is how Bombadil heard about it.

For N: I rather want this to be an elements clue, gas + gas + note. Ne (neon) would work for the first gas, as would N (Nitrogen); but I can't get any further than that.

O: I've looked for Hobbit O-names which are Primary World names indicating greatness, but none are really coming up.

B: I have no idea.
