FRODO BAGGINS
Name: Frodo Baggins
Frodo Baggins is a fictional character in J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium.
He is the primary protagonist of Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. He is also
mentioned in The Silmarillion. He was also the last ring-bearer because he
journeyed to Mount Doom in Mordor and destroyed it.
Frodo as a name is associated with Old English fród, meaning 'wise by experience'.
The derivation of Frodo's name is explained in Tolkien's Letters (No 168, dated
1955), where he also explains that '...it had mythological connexions with the
legends of the Golden Age in the North.' This seems to be a reference to King
Fróði of the Danes, whose reign was legendary for its prosperity and
fruitfulness.
