Frodo

My dog's name was Frodo, he was the best dog in the whole world. While I appreciate this name, I associate this too strongly with him and the fictional character to use it on an actual human being. (I have also seen many other dogs with this name, so it would be hard to imagine this on a human.)

I love that name. And I love Lord of The Rings! :)

Has a certain timeless charm. May also make a good name for a pet.

Reminds me of frogs.

I agree that it's not a name to give to your child. But for a pet I think it's simple and fun. I named my cairn terrier Frodo.
In Finnish the character is "Frodo Reppuli" (reppu = bag). My family's first dog's nickname is Peppuli (peppu = butt, bottom), for the way she shakes her butt when she's happy. Peppuli rhymes with Reppuli, and at first it was a joke to name the next dog Frodo. Eventually I grew into liking the name and then I could not think of any other name for him. Also, being a LOTR fan does play a part.

It's beautiful within the story. But it doesn't fit in our society, today. I don't laugh at it though because of how amazing Tolkien's character is, but honestly it's not a good name for a person.

My dog is a ruby cavalier and his name is Frodo. It suits him well, but please don't name your child this. It's a really bad name for humans.

Definitely wouldn't recommend this! It will lead to countless jokes.

I don't care how many points in nerd cred this brings you. There's no excuse for doing this to a child.

I think it's a good name for your pet dog or maybe even a hamster. But only one that's black or gray and fluffy.

And, to Arowen Half-Elven, Frodo's real name wasn't Frodo. In fact, it was Maura.
