Who in your family or friends, could pass for a FOTR character ?

Which of your family or (any current or former) friends do you
(humorously or seriously) reckon could pass for any one of
The Fellowship of the Ring film / book characters and WHY.

My husband could pass for a short, shaven Beorn. He's very gruff and has bushy eyebrows.

I had a friend once, whose last name was Turnbull, and she was extremely short, and hobbitish looking - even down to the slightly pointy ears... Never said anything to her about it of course, but it did make me wonder!

The bass player in my band is a dead ringer for Gimli. He even has a dwarven attitude, and his mighty bass strings are forged from mithril!

Just as you could pass for a hobbit llark. And I do not look like Elrond. I could probably pass for Eowyn, or Galadriel if I was taller and had pointed ears.

Hmm...dangerous question (I can just see someone saying something like "My brother could pass for Ugluk").

There are two girls in my class that could pass as handmaidens of Galadriel. Tall and blonde.

I've always thought my Social Studies teacher could pass for Faramir. I saw this kid at camp who could probably pass for Frodo.

Apparently I resemble Galadriel, and my boyfriend (as well as a few others) occasionally calls me Galadriel. This kid at camp could pass for Frodo, and Menelvagor looks a lot like an elf, maybe Arwen? Don't take offense, kashka! That was a compliment!

btw, there's another thread somewhere along the same lines as this one, that I started a while ago called "Who do you look like?", although it got rather off-topic, so they might have closed it.
