Hobbits and naming conventions

The most common comparison that’s been going around lately has been between the names of hobbits belonging to the Baggins family and the Took family. There is quite a distinct difference between the names, so it’s understandable that it seems a bit jarring to go from something simple like, say, Longo to something more noble-sounding like Isengrim.

In comparison, the names given to girls are very different. True, there are a few more nonsensical ones, like Belba. But there are also plenty of flower- or gem-names. This also gives a very odd contrast between the names of male hobbits and those of female hobbits.

However, there is a bit of reasoning behind the names, at least those belonging to hobbits from families with Fallohide blood. Those are not taken out of thin air. They were oftentimes given names evoking figures of legend (whether this means figures of legend in our world or in Middle-earth is hard to say, but it’s certainly not mistaken either way).

There’s no way that Snow didn’t recognise the Covey in Katniss, especially after reading SotR. No way he watched a dark haired girl call out to the mockingjays in the Games, no way he watched her sing to a dying girl, to her district partner in a cave, and didn’t immediately recognise the traits. I can imagine his blood going cold as he listened to The Hanging Tree, a song he for sure thought had vanished with the wind. But there she stood, a Covey. Someone connected to his Covey. Someone serving as a constant reminder that Snow lands on top but, eventually, Snow looses form and seeps into nothingness.

Somethings up with my chess pieces bro why are they looking at each other like that

Being the youngest avenger and them reacting to you going to Xavier's (or college/school)

-Bucky would be so proud that you want to control your mutations and Learn -Steve would be chill at first then realize you’re serious -“YOU CANT LEAVE WHOS GOING TO MAKE SURE THOR DOESNT EAT A BAR OF SOAP!” - “I have full faith that the incident with soap won’t happen again Stevie…I hope” -Wanda being super excited for you to meet cute boys (aka Alex summers or young Scott summers) - Nat hiding weapons in your bags just in case - tony trying to replace you with peter but it doesn’t work - dramatic sobbing “ ITS NOT THE SAME BRUCE!! I WANT MY LITTLE CHEESESTICK BACK” - and peters like “wtf thanks bruh #notfeelingthelove” - Bruce making up a schedule for when to call or video chat every one individually - Clint and sam being soccer moms and giving you a check list of stuff to pack and making sure you do - Thor is just not having any of it - “NO YOU WILL NOT TAKE IT I AM A NORSE GOD AND I FORBID IT” - Thor holding onto your leg like ‘bitch you going I’m going to’ -eventually Steve gets him off…but then Bucky can’t let his little sidekick go - “BUCKY PUT ME DOWN YOU OVERGROWN SNOWFLAKE” - tearful goodbyes - momma!steve - “call me when you get there, and call us everyday, and If you want to come back I will not hesitate to get you immediately, NO BOYS! And we love you” -long hug - “Thor….” “ROSE LET JACK GO I WILL NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE!” - “come on (y/n) we have a long journey ahead of us” - “coming professor Xavier” -mouthing ’ I love you guys’ before the elevator closes - Tony, Bucky, and Thor crying for days until you call “LADY (Y/N) I MISS YOU”

I have the book, and because I’m this way, I had to check the epilogue first … “Peeta says” is a phrase Haymitch and Katniss both use as a shorthand for something being true, and I’m going to be thinking about that for a long time
