I worked for a guy on a short film called Frodo, not a nickname or one he had adopted actually called Frodo and was named that by his parents. Also they are old enough that the LoTR films were out when he was in his teens so they were definitely old school book fans.

Similarly, I had a Merlin at my school. Poor kid. His parents lived on a barge and whittled things from twigs.
