5. Imladris? (That name is used in the poem/song that Boromir recites, rather than Rivendell).

4. Wife?

A guess at Samwise for the password?

I thought it might have been Entwife, to be fair. Or Elfwine.

2. And-U-in = ANDUIN? Frodo fled down it, and Samwise followed.

1. Sir + he = SHIRE?

6. I think this might be Smeagol. It seems likely that there might be a chemical element that sounds like Smeagol, but I can't think of it.

Unless it's 'sounds like seagull.' Seagulls have VERY elemental habits. (Anyone who has lived by the sea and been crapped on by one in mid-flight will know this).

7. Elves. Lose a letter from 'selves,' for a folk 'wondrous fair' to behold. Still many of them in the first two Ages.

Or, if 'your own being' indicates the singular, I guess it's ELF, from 'self.'
