Hobbit Male Names

Fallohide Hobbits tend to have aristocratic names influenced bt old Frankish, Gothic and Burgundian names. Harfoots tend to have more simple names, commonly ending in”-o”. Stoors seem to have either aristocratic or more common simple names. Of course there are always exceptions, there are many examples which commonly end in “-wise” or “-fast”, such as Samwise and Hamfast, but its a fairly simple excercise to come up with these names.
