Angelica not only attended Bilbo's famous Birthday Party, but was among those who received special presents: in her case, a round mirror. Notes 1 The modern name Angelica is the feminine form of Latin angelicus, meaning 'angel' or (etymologically) 'divine messenger'. A Hobbit of the Shire cannot have had a name deriving from Latin, so this must represent a translation of Angelica's true Hobbit-name. Within Tolkien's mythos, the role of an angel would most often be fulfilled by a being known as a Maia, so perhaps Angelica's true name contained a reference to such a being. See also...
