On an It's Academic round it had something about a "Dora Baggins" from LOTR. I do not remember Dora from any book. Does anyone else know who she was? Granted, Itsac rounds have resulted in Moses' 10 Commandants, Mozart's Juniper Symphony, and Italy being located on the Iberian Peninsula, so Dora may be a typo. :)

From The Complete Guide:

Dora Baggins (Third Age 2902-3006)

Hobbit of the Shire, eldest child of Fosco Baggins. She was a guest at Bilbo's farewell party, and was given a paper waste-basket. Dora was noted for her lengthy letters of good advice.

[FOTR p.60 ('93 ed.) or 64; ROTK p. 474 ('93 ed.) or 435]
