Nahald

Nahald ("secret") is the original Hobbit name of Déagol, the Stoor who originally found the One Ring and was murdered by Sméagol (Trahald).

In Déagol's days (mid-25th century Third Age) the hobbits who lived in the Vales of Anduin used language which was related to the Northern tongues of the Men.
