What is the name of the hobbit whose home is Bag End in J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit?

Bilbo Baggins is the hobbit whose home is Bag End in J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit.

Bag End is a hobbit-hole in Hobbiton, within the Shire. Bilbo lives there in comfort before the wizard Gandalf and the Dwarf Thorin Oakenshield draw him into a journey to the Lonely Mountain. The name reflects the Baggins family’s residence at the end of a lane, rather than a separate town or kingdom.

Bilbo is the central character of The Hobbit and later becomes an important link between that novel and The Lord of the Rings. Readers sometimes confuse Bag End with Crickhollow, where Frodo uses a house during his departure from the Shire, or with Rivendell, where the company later finds refuge.
