Easy quiz, but good one! Good idea to introduce the Tolkien's universe into the pictures quiz format.

If Mithrandir is added then Olorin should probably also. But I don't see why anyone would be able to name Mithrandir and not Gandalf.

It's not about "instead of" sometimes one just comes to you first and because it's in your mind the other name is lost on you. Especially when the timer is running!

Nitpick: The quiz displays formal names for Samwise (Sam) and Meriadoc (Merry), but the nickname for Peregrin (Pippin).

Great quiz! Though I kept ending the dwarf's name with a "y". Took way too long to figure out why it wasn't being taken.

That spelling is accepted. You maybe just had the yellow box in the wrong place?
