Babies Named After Tolkien's Characters

Seriously, who names their kid "Aragorn"?
A search of Social Security Administration records for babies named after Tolkien's characters. Alas, no Faramirs, though plenty of Arwens which did not surprise me since I went to high school with Arwen Smith.

The problem with Legolas is that there isn't a usable nickname. Leggy? Lassis? Leggo is the best I can come up with.
I knew a Theodric (which has a nice Rohirric sound) who went by Ted.
