A fictional small humanoid creature invented by J.R.R. Tolkien, typically living in peaceful, quiet communities.
Invented by Tolkien in 1954 for 'The Fellowship of the Ring'; he may have combined 'rabbit' with 'habit,' or simply created a pleasing-sounding word from scratch.
Hobbits are so beloved that the term has entered real dictionaries—the Oxford English Dictionary included 'hobbit' as an official English word, making fictional inventions like this genuinely part of our language now.
