Although very simple, I believe that "The Hobbit" is a perfect name for Tolkien's book. In the beginning of the book, Tolkien gives his description of a hobbit. He says it is a very peculiar creature, but is filled with many hidden talents. He mentions that they have always been overlooked, but yet they remain wise and clever. No one in Middle Earth, except for Gandalf, expected anything great from a hobbit, but Bilbo proved everybody wrong. This is what makes his acheivments as a hobbit more special than if he were a man, an elf, or a dwarf.
