Sam naming almost half of his thirteenth kids either after Frodo, by Frodo or after Frodo's relatives will never stop taking me out.
FIVE (including Elanor, whom he directly named and Sam wanted to call Frodo anyway). For reference, only two of his kids are named after Sam's own family, and only one — after Rosie's, although you can also include Rose here, which would still make only two.
Both his first-born daughter and his first-born son are named something Frodo-related. His father literally died in beetwen the birth of one of his kids and he named the child after Frodo's cousin who he journeyed with once, leaving Hamfast as a name for a later kid. There's no child named after Farmer Cotton and any of the Cotton brothers but Tomlan, whose name is at their youngest child. But there is a child named after Merry. And Bilbo. And of course Frodo. Even Rose is a name Frodo proposed when choosing one for Elanor.
Like Sam. Not everything has to be about Frodo. Do you know that. Do you want to tell us something.
