Frodo Meaning

Derived from the Germanic element frod "wise". This was the name of the hobbit hero in 'The Lord of the Rings' (1954) by J. R. R. Tolkien, who used Old English to translate some hobbit names (Frodo's real name was Maura). In the novel Frodo Baggins was the bearer of the One Ring on the quest to destroy it in Mount Doom. Frodo originates in Germanic languages and means "enlightened by life"s experience". It was used by J. R. R. Tolkien in his novel The Lord of the Rings as the name of one of the main characters, Frodo Baggins.
