You’ll never guess what kind of dog he had.
Oddly enough, a Rhodesian Ridgeback.
J. R.R. Tolkien like:
So the Big Bad is gonna be named Sauron and his right hand man will be called Saruman.
And there’ll be some dwarves named Thorin, and uhh… damn I need 13 of these? Alright fuck it let’s go: Fili, Kili, Balin, Dwalin, Ori, Nori, Dori, Gloin, Oin, Bifur, Bofur, and Bombur.
And then there’s these ancient elves named… hmm… screw it: Finwe, Feanor, Fingolfin, Finarfin, and Findis
Thank you! I was looking for this meme when writing that comment and couldn’t find it.
Honestly it’s just good writing. A name indicates culture, so it makes sense that dwarfs and elves would have some commonalities among their respective culture.
For me as a reader this is good (and bad). A name tells me what it is — good, but by being this similar it’s harder to tell who they are — bad.
J.R.R. the paper is burning!
Take it, it’s quite cool.
