Notes

1

At least if Chica were a Spanish name, it would mean 'girl'. Like many Hobbit-names, this may represent a translation of Chica's actual name into something more recognisable to modern readers. Alternatively, it is conceivable that Chica was a real Hobbit-name, in which case it would carry its own untranslated meaning.
