I wasn't satisfied that the On Notice board I created was sufficient fun in response to the challenge issued on CowHampshire.
So I went to the Hobbit Name generator, and entered in my own name, and the names of all my ancestors up to 4 generations, and then of course I created a new database on iFamily and typed in those names.
I fear I may need to apologize to my Mom most for the results. If anyone is interested in the gedcom, just ask. I entered nothing except names, though I could have created some descriptions a the detailed character generator.
I do notice in the final generation that there is evidence of possible pedigree collapse if I carry the diagram much further. And why did Drogo Foxburr of Fairdowns change his name to Hardbottle upon coming to America? You'd have to ask him.

Even better!
Oh to be Prisca Bramble of Willowbottom!
So. You just had to be twice as funny as the rest of us? Two genus humorous.

I don't know much about Prisca Bramble of Willowbottom. When I was young I dreamt that Prisca was somehow related to Minto Bleecker-Baggins of Fair Downs.
Minto's a famous escape artist many youngsters read stories about, and I had read enough to know that his real name was Mungo Bramble of Willowbottom. I figured they had the same last names, they had to be related. Somehow.
And what I am most impressed about in all that is that the names Minto and Mungo are almost as close as the human names are.
John,
I found this!
They must be related lol

Correction: Goldie Foxburr of Loamsdowne should be changed to Goldie Toadfoot.
