Other ideas...
As when everything is going to be renamed except for the Hobbit, we'd read the titles as follows (in order of the Hobbit, LotR, New Shadow, Silmarillion, CoH)
The Hobbit The Hobbits (with the subtitle "This Time, It's War!") The Hobbit 3 The Hobbit -1 The Hobbit without the Hobbits

We should have caught the Bus to Rivendell.
The first few chapters of LotRs could be called:
Stains, Pains and Autumnhobbles. .

Before settling on 'The New Shadow' Tolkien tried...
- Not Lord of the Rings - Let's make up and be Friendly - The Old bad - The New Car - The New House - The New Hobbit? - The News. - The News at ten - The New Barrow

Discards from the deck
More pencilled out titles:
Ringworm Ringworld (adopted ages later to great acclaim by Larry Niven) The Eagle Has Landed (optioned ages later by Jack Higgens) The Four Little Hobbits and How They Grew (amended in a later age by Margaret Sidney) Wiz Kids (still up for grabs) A Ring for the Old Gollem (revisited in late Renaissance England) Blowed Up Good (tagline taken by SCTV in late Seventh Age) Magic: The Gathering (assumed by a Seventh Age tournament and convention company)

The Lord of the Rings:
- The Ring and it's friends - Hobbits on the run - Sauron's happy time goods - The Return of the bads - Gandalf's hat goes on an adventure. Also there is a ring involved. - Mystical adventure about Rings and Lords and wars and all the stuff that was good in The Hobbit but bigger and better and this is a long title. -  - A Hobbit, A Ring and a Whole world of trouble! - Not the Three o'clock News.
