Sackville-Bagg?
Does anyone else see a similarity between the name Sackville-Bagg and the Sackville Bagginses in The Hobbit?
What's up with this?

When on the ladder of success,do not let boys look up your dress
I thought that name looked familiar!
shareThe Author did It on purpose. Liked the name From lord Of the rings And decided to edit it alittle bit.
shareIs the name used in the English translation of the books though? And does anybody know whether Angela Sommer-Bodenburg did the translation herself?
In the German version of the books and also both TV-series (I'm not sure about the movie really) the family is called "von Schlotterstein" (roughly "of Shiverstone"). Rudolph's German name is actually RĂ¼diger. Tony is called "Anton Bohnsack" (=Beansack).
yeah, and gregory is called Lumpi XD LUMPI!
shareIf you read the trivia it says:
Trivia: The family name "Sackville-Bagg" in this film is a reference to J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit", as Bilbo and Frodo Baggins are related to the "Sackville Bagginses"
It didn't say that before.
shareWhoever decided to use this obvious Tolkien reference made a stupid mistake. There is no resemblance whatever between the two families so the name's resonance does not ring clear in the viewer's mind. Instead it clashes most unmusically.
shareThe Reference was more fun and cool before internet made all References immediately recognizable. Today everything is saturated With LOTR, but in 2000, it was kind of cool to see an inside joke like that.
