Where do Hobbits come from
I, along with some of my buddies, have made a few theories which I will post after a few replies

When a mommy hobbit and a daddy hobbit love each other very much...

A moral of the whole (after the primary symbolism of the Ring, as the will to mere power, seeking to make itself objective by physical force and mechanism, and so also inevitably by lies) is the obvious one that without the high and noble the simple and vulgar is utterly mean; and without the simple and ordinary the noble and heroic is meaningless." Letters of JRR Tolkien, page 160. |

Hobbits are as you might say, 'Evolved' Humans.

First Sugestion:
Hobbits could be Men and Drawfs crossed over Drawfs=Small, Hole-dwellers Men=Mortal, look like men, live as long. And, to bropous, all I say is ... Oh!

Perhaps, oh great white one, it is an elf crossed with a dwarf, who then married a hobbit! Or how about they just appeared
