Just a note - a company I used to work for had a webapp server that we
wanted to call Gandalf, but the lawyers wouldn't let us because
apparently the Tolkein family was legal happy or something. I don't know
if hobbit would have the same issue, were hobbits something Tolkein took
from lore, or is the name his invention?
