Place Names

I don't know if this has been done before, but I don't think it has. . .

Anyway, yesterday I saw this fancy apartment building called 'Rivendell.' So, has anyone else seen places and stuff with the same names as places, etc. in LotR or any other Tolkien books?

I know a cafe called Lembas, so it might have something to do with LOTR.

Sorry to burst your bubble Eruviel, but it has been done before. It's in a thread called 'Pippin's Cafe' and you can find it here.

Gandalf

I saw a truck and on it I saw the name: "Valinor". really. I think it had to be sonething with Tolkien because i remember some other things on it that was like this: "the island of happyness" and more.
