I was teaching my sister the names of the 13 Dwarves from Thorin's company, as well as a few other Dwarven names. We managed to turn their names into a bunch of weirdest things, including an army of pigs.
Me (counting on fingers): Balin Dwalin. Oin Gloin. Ori Nori Dori. Bifur Bofur Bombur. Kili Fili. Thorin.
Sister: Gloin. Dori. Nori. Oin. Ori. Oink. Oink? Oink Oink Oink...
And more incidents that I can remember:
...Kili. Fili. Dawling. Bowling.
...(lists 10 of them, without the B's). Balin. Bombur Bombur Bombur.
...Bifun Bofun Bombun Bamboo.
...Borin Dorin Darin Durin Nurin Norin Trorin Forin Tarin Turin...
