Well, Tolkien did once say he was a hobbit...
Hey, does that mean you have a share in his estate?

That was pointed out to me yesterday (hi, Kel! ) - I have no idea how it happened, I can't possibly have made that many posts! 
But now, there's only the two of us, so the rest of you need to get busy posting lots more... !

"Tolkien, like Lewis, believed that, through story, the real world would become a more magical place, full of meaning. We see its patterns and colors in a fresh way. The recovery of a true view of the world applies both to individual things, like hills and stones, and to the cosmic - the depths of space and time itself. For in sub-creation, in Tolkien's view, there is a "survey" of space and time. Reality is captured on a miniature scale. Through stories like The Lord of the Rings, a renewed view of things is given, illuminating the homely, the spiritial, the physical, and the moral dimensions of the world."

May the grace of Manwë let us soar with eagle's wings!
In the air, among the clouds in the sky
Here is where the birds of Manwe fly
Looking at the land, and the water that flows
The true beauty of earth shows
With the stars of Varda lighting my way
In all the realms this is where I stay
In the realm of Manwë Súlimo

AAARGGH! I hate that guy! he even openly admits in a disclaimer on his site, "lots of morons keep mailing me in that the names dont' actually correspond to things; you idiots"
but really, there is no possible way to make up an "accurate" Hobbit-name
***as for Elf-names, YES, you can: find out what your name means in the real world using a baby-names website
then find a Quenya or Sindarin dictionary, and pick a word with similar meaning.
***I'm almost compelled to make my OWN accurate name generator! THat guys' taking advantage of everyone.
