How in the world did you find an alternate name for Eol? The only one I spotted was in a very early note where he was mentioned as 'Eol (Alvar)' or something like it, which I think might actually be a form of 'Avari' instead.
I mean, I know Tolkien's gonna Tolkien, hence how the change Meglin > Maeglin somehow went through 'Morleg', but Eol seems pretty fixed.
Anyhow, a temporary police force is probably a posse, which makes #2 OSSE.
Fish eggs... can't be caviar, because no E, but could be roe. Which... well, EOR could be an old Tolkien name for someone, and from what you've said would have to have been a passing name for Eol? Sounds more like a donkey, though.
